Itinerary:
1. Introductions.
2. Create Your Own Custom Website on Google in about 90 min or so. What you will need:
- A Computer
- A high speed internet connection.
- $12 to register a domain name for a year with Google. I recommend a version of your real name or your pen name, like StephenKing.com. If you have a common last name, try using "author" before your first initial or first name and then your last name. "AuthorSKing.com"
- Pictures that you own or that are in the public domain, so you are allowed to use them on your website. Think about a banner picture and a picture of your lovely face at least.
- Some words. A description of what your site is about. Your bio. Your first blog post. Some content.
- • Brainstorm what you want your website to do. Get you speaking gigs? Be a place to showcase a screenplay? Sell your novels? Accumulate a fandom? Just for your family and friends? Store important files? A hub for your critique group? Make a list of what you want your website to do.
- • How do you want visitors to your website to react? Buy something? Sign up for your newsletter? Make a comment? Make another list.
3. Accountability Moment:
- We will state a plan for the next month.
