My novel-in-stories is coming out next month and I'd like a simple, clean, yet interesting web presence. I'd like it to be photo-driven and consist of 3-4 different pages.
Updates
Hi Designers-
I realized that my guidance on the brief might have been confusing, so I've completely changed and updated the brief! I hope this is helpful and I'm sorry if my first thoughts were confusing. I am a writer - I don't know much about web design!
I've also included sample sites that I like; hope this helps!
THANKS so much for your help with this project! As a starving artist, it's great to have this type of help!

Hi-
I've added another picture (kind of an artsy, music picture, thought it might be cool - I'm also in a band)...and a Word. doc. of the blurbs I've gotten so far!
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
