New-Age Web Construction

Time used to be, back in the olden-times of the internet, that anyone who wanted a presence set up a website, then sat around dusting the cobwebs off the corners. The website host would offer all kinds of ways to help folks find your site, but unless you were Nike or Coca Cola, odds were good nobody but your mom and Aunt Martha would show up.

But as all good things do, the options began to increase. You could have a blog! And a Facebook presence! And don't forget Twitter for the truly anal media user!

The lucky business owner or just plain person could add those things a little at a time, announcing any new opening to their current collection of fans or friends. Kind of a snowball effect. And rarely ever lonely. Facebook alone makes sure you're never lonely.

But here's how it is when you start from scratch: You have to build your house (ie. blog or website), and the wings of the house (Facebook, Twitter, Google and Goodreads if you happen to be an author). And all those things have to be connected and intertwined. Otherwise you might want to turn on a light in the bathrom but the lightswitch is in the kitchen! (Talk about problems.)

Which means you're running all over the internet blasting all this information, sending links from here to there and everywhere, but there's nobody there to see it. Cause for now it's just a structure. Or a bunch of structures. Where nobody lives or even visits. Which feels kinda lonely. Okay, very lonely.

So even though all the parts aren't completely in place, here's hoping that the first entry in this first blog introducing the FABULOUS Book One of the new young adult paranormal romance ExtraNormal gets the party started!

Cause nothing's as sad as a party where nobody comes. And this party is definitely worth finding! (Never mind the painters and carpet layers, they're just getting the finishing touches on!)

Take a look around, ask your questions, and be watching for a great read coming soon in 2012.
