You may notice a few changes here around Gnomesby — new WordPress theme, weird links to The Franchesca Diaries, random ’80s lyrics showing up in the header — and you may ask yourself, “Well, how did I get here?”
Well, I will tell you. In the spirit of laziness I’ve decided that creating a brand new blog for Fran was too much work, so I’m just going to use this here Gnomesby site. Since Franny will end up in Gnomesby eventually, it works.
But…I couldn’t just let the site be, you know? I had to futz with it and spiff it up a bit. Now that I have it the way I want it (well, except for a nice graphic up top, but I’m working on that), it’s all ready for me to start posting stories.
In the meantime, let me know if anything looks weird or doesn’t work, etc.
And since this new layout looks a little barren without a picture, here’s another sneak preview shot:
Whaa Jen, I’m so excited!!!
Everything displays and looks fine to me!
Very sleek.
And now ‘The Safety Dance’ is stuck in my head…
hey Jen!
great to see your site active again!
i can’t wait for your storys!
I can’t wait, I love your stories. Everything you do is always so well done. Even when you’re “being lazy”!
OOO, it looks nice Jen. Can’t wait to see more Fran! :D
Everything works for me!
Can’t wait for Fran!
:]
Its all working for me.
I love Fran, looking forward to it :)
I dig it!
Ahhhhhh! More 80s lyrics! I can’t get away from the 80s. I don’t want to do the Time Warp again.
Oh my! So sorry, Lisa. Would it be better if I used lyrics from old jazz standards? :-D
This is so EXCITING!!
I think I will go re-read the Fran Diaries in preparation.
The new website looks great. (((:
The new layout looks great and new stories too.. YAY!! I do have a strange longing for my Talking Heads tape though :)
Yeah! I’m waiting far too long for my dear Fran to come back! Can’t wait!
I know exactly what you mean about having to “futz” with the look of the blog any time you make any kind of change; my blogs are continually “futzed” with! ^_^
It’s good to be reading your work again; now I’m off to get caught up! Hope you & yours have been well.
Thanks, guys! Hope you enjoy the new chapter in Fran’s saga.
