QQN News - August 2003

August 2003

Hello Folks,

Well here it is – the exciting news – a reformatted new-look web site! How I love to work with color. It’s time to stop being so timid.

This has been a terrific adventure, prodded on by my need to re-evaluate everything I’m doing (don’t worry, this happens frequently). It also helps to have a web manager who is continuously reminding me to think “web words” and “search engines” and “what are you trying to say?”

Thanks to Green Thumb Web Design. You’ve really taken on a challenge here. And such courage to tell a writer how to write! Thanks also go to Brandon who took on the original challenge of setting up the QQN web site last year. He’s moving on to other things and I wish him great success.

New Articles

The web site now has many more articles that you can find through the Index. My horizons have expanded from interview articles with artists to include feature articles, children’s stories, books, and maybe down the road if this is really working well – web site copy for all those who have stories to tell on their own personal web pages. This is all included now under the section Writing Services.

Now articles that get posted on this web site will also have photographs and graphics, if they are available.

Canadian Interiors Magazine

Watch for an article in Canadian Interiors magazine (now available on magazine racks) late this fall on William Switzer, who’s still going strong with his furniture lines. The family business has been around for years and now has grown to include show rooms right across North America. Would you believe I worked for Bill over 30 years ago as an assistant designer? Well yes, I’m having a hard time believing it too. You know, Bill looks the same now as he did then – just got white hair, that’s all.

So until September, which isn’t very far away – peace and harmony…

Cheers
Rosemary
