In 2016, I made my debut as an author (if not, technically, a book illustrator), and while I was funding pre-orders for the book, I used this website to give people a comfortable landing spot (rather than, say, dropping them face-first onto a page asking them to buy something they barely know anything about). It’s economical on words and heavy on color, which I feel is a fitting site for a book that’s constructed with a similar ratio of words to bright colors.
The only downside is the updates section — not because of how it looks or functions, but because I did a poor job of actually using it to provide updates. There are four, but the “Making a Book Series” may as well have been a network television show for how unceremoniously it was unexpectedly halted. (I got sidetracked.)
