How do you tackle the mechanics of Web design and how do you deal with your frustrations when you can't do what you envision.
I've done most of the design, HTML and CSS myself. When I have a problem I turn to other bloggers for guidance.
Why do you think people are interested in what you have to say?
I'm honest, self deprecating and not overly self indulgent and my readers like to hear about the things that I do in the city.
What compels you to design beautiful pages and to write from the heart (beyond just the usual question of why an online journal)?
I like putting myself out there and voicing my adventures out into the online void.
