So, after receiving a little encouragement and scouring the web for help with html, I have put together my own little website. Yikes!
If you check it out, please remember that it's still under construction and I am an html novice and I decided that if I was ever going to learn, I had to just do it. So, with the help of a self-teaching book from the library (I just love books) and some web hints, I built the site using the Notepad on my computer. I'm too cheap to get something like Dreamweaver :-).
I have felt a lot of hesitancy when it comes to building a site. I worry that allowing an editor or agent to see "more" of me isn't going to be such a good thing. For instance, what if they don't like the excerpt I have on the website. Then that small part has blown my chances. Right?
Maybe I am just over thinking this whole thing. Maybe I'm opening up that small part of my brain that questions whether or not I'm actually a good writer. Maybe I need to step back and look at this as an opportunity to open myself to new experiences and avenues.
I just hope that I don't spend all of my free time tweaking the website, since I'm feeling a little obsessive compulsive about it.
Feel free to share any comments you have about the site. I'd love some feedback (I can take criticisms to;-))!

Oh, pretty background. I like the couple kissing, too.
Thanks, Kayla, Emma, & Mary!
I'm still tweaking and you all gave me some great input, it's much appreciated!
I've made a few changes. Mainly just the font colors. I left the background. I would like it to be a bit lighter, so I'll have to get my hubby to work on it in photoshop. :>) I'm not sure if the lighter fint helps much, but it made it feel better to me....
Would you like me to look into getting and helping you set up the domain name www.aprillalsup.com? Drop me a line through Dena or on here and I'll see what I can do.
Hi Billy! You're such a sweetie. Why don't you pop me an email at alarwrtr AT yahoo DOT com.
Thanks!
