Author & Creative Websites

RodSanford.com | Suspense & Mystery Author

“From cluttered and confusing to a launch-ready homepage that finally spotlights his newest series.”

Project Summary:
Rod’s previous homepage split attention between multiple series and a blog-style intro, making it hard for new readers to know where to begin. I rebuilt the site around his newest novel, The Time Queen, using clear hierarchy, improved typography, and a structured reading path that guides visitors into the series in the right order. The result is a clean, author-focused homepage built for discovery and conversions.

Key Features:
· Hero section designed to spotlight the newest book and core hook
· Clear “start-here” reading path for new visitors
· Simplified navigation for books, appearances, and contact
· Updated author positioning with refined layout and bio placement
· Mobile-first structure optimized for quick scanners and readers

Paula-Wagner.com | Memoir & Travel Writing

“From a text-heavy hero to a clean, story-driven homepage that finally lets her voice shine.”

Project Summary:
Paula’s previous homepage opened with a long book title and multiple overlapping sections that hid her message and made the page feel crowded. I redesigned the site around a single emotional promise — stories of love, loss, and the lands that shape us — supported by a clean hero image, improved readability, and a focused path into her featured memoir and blog. The result is a welcoming, narrative-centered homepage that invites readers into her journeys.

Key Features:
· Story-first headline paired with a strong, emotional subhead
· Clear call-to-action guiding readers into her memoir and essays
· Improved contrast and readability across hero, text, and navigation
· Simplified sections that highlight her featured book and writing
· Mobile-optimized design for older readers, tablets, and casual skimmers
