A Redesign Is Coming . . .

Somewhere in the short to medium term.

Years ago, I started a blog entitled, Take Your Place. When I wanted to indulge my love of science fiction, fantasy, and writing, I then created this blog. Eventually, the circumstances of life forced me to focus on this place, combining discussions of faith, fantasy, writing, and just general nuttiness. From a branding perspective, it's a bit of a mess. From a blogging perspective, I am definitely under-utilizing the flexibility and power of the Squarespace Content Management System.

So, I've had vague plans to redesign both sites some day. It appears that someday is getting nearer--on the horizon, at least. And I think I've found my redesigning partner--Tekeme Studios. This small web-design company has a lot of heart, and some phenomenal talent. I encourage you to go to the website and check out the work they do. Unlike most web design companies, Tekeme is priced very affordably!

The fine folks over at Tekeme are also running a contest, with multiple ways to enter and win some free creative design services. Here are the details:

Hello everyone!
