The San Antonio Writers Guild Website Facelift Is Complete

After many hours of hard work (on my own time...waaaah) the new San Antonio Writers Guild website is done.

Welcome to the San Antonio Writers Guild (SAWG)

 

No longer are members constrained to narrow columns. Translation: ultra-long pages. Pages can now be printed without all the background art. They can be shared on a ridiculous number of social media sites. You can make the San Antonio Writers Guild home page a favorite or even your home page (stalker!).

Did I hear a yawn?

Doesn't seem worth all the work?

Ok. I admit it. Outwardly, one might think so; however, I couldn't be happier about the changes at this stage. You see, now I can finally assign others usernames and passwords and different levels of clearance so they can assist in updating the site's content. No longer will I be the one laying out the newsletters. No longer will I need to be the one updating the upcoming meetings schedule. No longer will I need to be the one updating guest speaker bios or policy pages or any other pages. That can all be shared.

Let me take a moment to suggest ICG Link's Build111 product which I used to create this site. I already had a working website with a great look that I didn't want to lose. Build111 allowed me to keep the look but to add a TON of additional functionality. In the next few days, I'll be adding the SAWG blog and actual online forms, something that I couldn't have pulled of with the site in the old location. And all of this for a starting $25/month. It's a terrific deal and has proven to be WAY simple to use. Thank you ICG Link.
