Building a Professional Writer's Website with WordPress

You've written a book, or are entering the freelance writing trade. You know you need a website to market yourself and your work. You've got more time than money right now, and you'd like to know more about making web pages. That, and a free copy of WordPress, may be all you need to create a professional-looking interactive website.

MichaelMcCallister.com is a homegrown project of the author, born of the practice of "eating your own dogfood": If you want to advocate for (or sell) software, you should be able to use it.

In this session, we'll talk about when hiring a web professional is the right thing to do, and when to do it yourself. We'll review the process of building a WordPress website that doesn't rely on a blog. Plenty of time for Q&A too.
