Purpose

This is my public-facing website for my creative writing. The purpose of this site is to establish my branding for my own books and stories.

Design

This site is hosted on Doteasy.com and I utilized the website.com site builder app for creating the layouts, pages, features, and content. The site is designed for device and desktop browsers.

Notes

Even though I knew I was going to use a site design tool, I spent a lot of time planning the navigation, features, and layout of the site. The site is responsive, however, I plan on adding compression to all the mages for improving performance, and fix some issues I found when performing an audit of the site. I also still need to make some adjustments for improving my “science fiction author” rankings.

Purpose

This was my final project assignment for my Cascading Style Sheets course at Edmonds Community College. The assignment was to take an existing template and adapt it to our own purpose. We were to use CSS files and embedded CSS styling for the site. The site is to be coded for desktop and device-based browsers and must be able to adjust to browser resizing.

Design and Development

The layout is based on a template design provided by the professor. Two CSS files and two HTML files along with embedded JavaScript. I used MS Visual Code for the manual coding of the content.

Notes

This was a great exercise in sharpening my skills in CSS3 for element relationships and writing for desktop and mobile platforms.
