One of Many ~

For starters, I would LOVE to be able to create a personal website, complete with all the bells and whistles! I've been trying for a few months now, and all that seems to happen is that I get close to completing a site, only to find some fatal flaw that I just can't work out of the system! It's honestly driving me bananas.

I am a writer, very social, and very creative. I want a website that will allow me to seperate my writing into sections, password protect some parts so I can control access, and generally share my work with other people. I also want the same site to have a message board and chatroom, so that my friends and family can keep up with each other in one place. I want to be able to have fun and be serious at the same time.

Someday I will be able to acheive this dream. I just have to keep trying! In the mean time, I've learned not to tell anyone to go look at my site until I know it's going to work out.

I bet it's frustrating with making the website. But how often in life do we work to achieve something only to realize we have to go back through and rework it?
I wanted to say hi. I am an aspiring writer too.
Kudos on trying to build a website, that stuff is way over my head (it gives me migraines looking at the darn code!)
Good luck!

Thanks, Dream

What do you like to write? The code tends to give me headaches too, so I take it slow. Learning how to write links that open in new pages, currently. It's annoyingly slow...

I finally got something to work, though it's still in the works, and not all the pages are up and running quite yet. Check it out!
