I am so happy to finally have a tag line for my new website, as you’ll see above in the top portion: Celebrating our connection with animals who teach us to live joyfully. Thank you, Mary Shafer for helping me to brainstorm this!
I’ve accepted the design, so now it is in the development stage. My blog, and Frankie’s will be incorporated right into my site, which I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. I also like the cleaner, more simplified look… thanks to my website mistress, Caryn Newton of Lantern Glow Design.
I wanted my new site to reflect more of who I am and the vision I have for myself as I continue to move forward with my new book… and who knows where else I shall go… I am a constant work in progress… just like we all are. If I had to describe the website in terms of how it makes me feel one word, of course is, joyful, but also nostalgic, vintage-y, happy, content, animal love, and authentic.
I want to also take a moment to say a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who offered their thoughts on an image for the cover of my new book, Through Frankie’s Eyes: One Woman’s Journey to Her Authentic Self and the Dog on Wheels Who Led the Way.
Hands down, the photo below is what well over 150 of you chose. I, too, adore this photo. I will be giving some thought though to getting a shot that may show more of our faces, as this was a suggestion from some of you in the publishing and graphic design fields. The fact is that it is winter here in Wisconsin and Frankie and I would freeze our little hiney’s off on the dock, so we will have to wait for warmer weather—so we will see about a new photo early summer. I’ll then post photo below and new one for a new vote. Again, thank you everyone for taking the time to let me know which one you liked. I so appreciate it!!
