There’s an old saying that the cobbler’s children have no shoes. Well, my website is a cobbler’s child.

I may be a professional web designer, but between my agency job and freelance work, I have long neglected my own website. I finally decided that I’d rather modernize my site and use a pre-made theme (for now) than continue to have a personal website that had gotten a little dated.

So here it is, my new site. It’s using a pretty standard version of the Writer theme from ThemeFuse. What drew me to the theme were the colors and typography — and the fact that I had gotten a code for three free ThemeFuse items in a recent BundleHunt package. It also had a pretty nice looking layout for a portfolio page, so I’m pretty happy with it overall.

I do hope to design and code something from scratch soon, though.
