Create a writer’s website – workshop at WriteNow 2012

Just a few weeks until I’m helping people create a ‘small-but-perfectly-formed’ writer’s website on 9th March at WriteNow 2012 – a fab Glasgow literary conference with a fantastic line up.

I’m just putting the final touches to the workshop and I am *very* excited about welcoming more writers into the wonderful world of websites and blogging.

So, if you’ve ever wanted your own writer’s website-with-a-blog but…

• you’ve been put off by the cost of setting it up
• you’ve been put off by the cost of making updates after setting it up
• you’ve worried that it’s just too technical and complicated
• you’ve wondered if you’ve actually got anything to, you know, write about

Please come – this one is definitely for you!

You might be wondering… What’s so cool about this workshop?

• You’ll leave with all the skills you need to add and remove pages, text and pictures
• It’s a gentle introduction – if you can use Word, you can use WordPress.com
• The only thing to pay for is the conference itself and there’s LOADS to choose from

Will I have to know lots of technical stuff?

Absolutely not. This workshop is for people who use computers – just normal stuff like emailing, surfing the web, using Word – but who have no specialist internet knowledge.

Will you speak to me in complicated IT Person language?

Really, I won’t. I can be a bit geeky at times but I’m also writer with an MA in English Lit. When I first got started with computers, I was quite honestly thought I might blow the computer up by pressing the wrong key combination. So, if you’re a technophobe, don’t worry, I know how that feels!

Any questions – please just drop me a line and I’ll get back to you.
