I contacted Finest Kind Web Design at a low point in my writing career. My ninth book was coming out in paperback after selling through two hardcover printings, but the publisher had found it inconvenient to make the many corrections the book needed. Bla-at! I write middle grade and young adult speculative fiction, but friends blamed my lack of success there on my lack of an on-line presence, a platform. I tried launching a blog, but lacked the confidence and presence to keep it current. Bla-at.
An author friend, like me of a pre-millennial generation, had been through a similar slough, and recommended her e-savior, Finest Kind Web Design.
Owner Henry Lyons met me at a local café and, after listening carefully to what I thought I needed, he gave me a clear idea of options he could offer and what each would cost. He didn't say that he regards his role as more than a web designer, more than a website host, but that was the case. He taught me by stages, not only how to handle a website and a facebook page, but also how to plan my time efficiently to keep my facebook page current while maintaining my writing, marketing, and family lives. He is seriously interested in helping me succeed and in my website working for me.
When I purchased the rights to my most recent picturebook along with the remaining stock, Henry made concrete suggestions about marketing the accompanying 800 copies, set up a shopping cart on my website, and led me through the complicated process of becoming an on-line book seller. I recommend Finest Kind Web Design most highly. — Robin Hansen
