NEW LOOK Coming Soon...
Sunday, February 17, 2013 at 02:27PM
Just a note to let you know The Rebel Housewife website will have a new look very soon. I am having such a hard time with this! I love the pink circles & dots and the elements of my website, which have not changed for...well, a number of years.
While I like to call it "classic" or "retro," my website provider tells me my style is now "legacy," which is, apparently, another word for obsolete. There are so many new bells & whistles available, which will make it easier for me to post & update and easier for my readers to interact & share, but I have to update to a newer template style in order to use and offer the new features.
Here's a sobering thought: When I first started this website in June 2004, there was no Facebook or Twitter, no Google+ or Pinterest. Can you imagine?
My website solution, Squarespace.com, has been with me since the very beginning (and I, theirs), when I was a non-techie, newly-published author, searching for a way to have a website, and a blog, without having to be at the mercy of a techie-geek web developer for every new post or every change I wanted to make. (I say that affectionately, of course, since my hubby is my #1 techie-geek web developer.) I learned how to do it myself! With a lot of help from Anthony Casalena (from his dorm room, apparently). Thank you, Anthony.
Squarespace has come a long way, and so have I, just not as quickly. They have just launched a brand-new, revolutionary website development solution, Squarespace 6, and here I am, making the personal leap from v4 to v5, which I guess happened...well, a number of years ago.
Change is SO HARD, but here it comes...
See you soon!
