Tyme’s new home base

Hello, everyone! Thanks for stopping by the new site. I’m so happy with it, and so grateful to the people who helped me get my digital life together. Thank goodness for cool people who know how to do all the things I don’t.

I needed music for my book trailer, but I couldn’t find what I wanted in the wilds of the Internet. Cue my friend and colleague Christy Bowman-White, telling me that her husband, Donny Audrell, is a musician who can totally handle the project. He wrote such a wonderful theme for the trailer – I could not have asked for anything more fitting. (If you’re an author looking for great trailer music, I will gladly put you in touch with him!)

Then I needed a web designer, but wow, there are a lot of them, and I had no idea how to sort through the options. Along came my agency sibling, Christine Hayes, who shared the name of the amazing designer she’d found: Jenny at Websy Daisy, who has done tons of fantastic author sites. I got in touch with her, and she was friendly and clear and super-duper easy to work with – and wicked, wicked fast. Once she started working on this site, she was done inside of a week. Gotta love a focused and skilled professional.

Finally, I needed illustrations for my site, so I reached out to my old friend Polly Beam, Weasley lookalike and fellow Harry-Potter superfan, who also happens to be a talented illustrator whose artistic sensibility is beautiful and whimsical and perfectly suits Tyme. She drew up a bevy of towers and spot illustrations, and in the end developed the background and navigation buttons you see here. Isn’t she fabulous? Yes she is.

So thank you, Donny and Jenny and Polly, for creating the music, web design, and art that will help me launch GROUNDED online – and thank you, Christy and Christine and J.K. Rowling, for bringing those fine people and their talents into my life.

T-minus two months and four days, people! Not that I’m counting.
