the writerly type design process
Consultation
We chat so I can get to know you and ask questions about your vision, your books, and what your website goals are.
Gather the content
I provide you with a detailed online workbook to walk you through everything you need–from website copy, to images, to considerations about privacy policies.
Design
When your design begins, we’ll have another brief chat to clarify any last minute details, and then I start to work my magic, designing your website.
Feedback
You’ll get to review your website, and if we’re doing a custom design package, we’ll go back and forth making edits until it’s right where you want it.
Publish!
Your website is ready for the world. It’s fabulous and it’s yours. (*insert you jumping up and down with glee here*)
Support
You get two weeks of active support, access to my ever-growing tutorial video library (for life), and I am always an email away to help you in the future. Or just to celebrate the launch of your latest book.

“Working with Karen at The Writerly Type Studio was SO easy! She is very organized, very knowledgeable, very patient, and very creative. She took such good care of me and the website she created speaks for itself. Her process is streamlined and very user-friendly, she responds quickly to emails, and meets all deadlines. She also provides clients with loads of tutorial videos and support links so we can fully manage things on our own once the site is launched.”

“I’m so glad I chose The Writerly Type Studio to create my site. I had a very specific look in mind, and Karen took my notes and sketches and—using her out-of-this-world-skills and talents—turned them into something even better than I imagined. The first time I saw what she built, I cried because I was so happy. All my worries disappeared, and I knew my site was in good hands.
Karen is wonderful to work with. She listens carefully, explains things clearly, and when a hiccup came up, she jumped on it and fixed it quickly. I thoroughly enjoyed—and still enjoy—working with her. Whether you’re starting from scratch or improving an existing site, I highly recommend The Writerly Type Studio.”

This one is my website as an aspiring author. Do aspiring authors need a website? Not necessarily, BUT it can make you feel more professional (hobby writers don’t have websites), it can be a place where you start a blog and start building up your audience before you’re even published.

“Working with Karen at The Writerly Type Studio was a perfect choice for me. My needs were answered quickly, she spoke with me often to understand my vision, and she gave me a beautiful product. As well, she reached out when she needed information, caught mistakes in the information I sent, and made sure I wasn’t forgotten or left behind.
So glad I found The Writerly Type Studio. Not only will I have Karen do other work for me, I’ll tell my friends about her, too.
Why? You don’t get lost here.”
