I created this website for an old work colleague who writes novels and short stories in his spare time.
We opted for a simplistic user experience, and a design that reflected reading a book – with stylish page turning animations included!
A long time ago … eating a Galaxy far, far, away
I was not aware of it at the time but I think the seed of wanting to write was sown whilst I was still at school. I was 14 or 15 when a writing competition was staged. We had an opening line of “It was midnight in the library and all was quiet and dark” or something like that, and we had to create a story from it. My entry was about secret codes and treasure. I won joint first prize. My teacher and head of year both said it was good but quite complicated. I wish I still had it but I never got it back.
