Well, that was surprising!  One of the things I’ve always struggled with in my professional web presence is the whole saying-nice-things-about-myself thing.  The way this manifested itself in previous versions of my website was that while I used first-person language to talk about the future—“I look forward to working with you” and the like—I invariably discovered I’d used third-person language in talking about my accomplishments.  (“David was named #1 Music Teacher in Harrisburg for 2015 by Thumbtack users!”)

Anyhoo.  Curious how others felt about it, I posted the question on Facebook:

The results were nearly unanimous: first-person it is!

Won’t my therapist be thrilled when she learns folks expect me to say nice things about myself using my own voice!  (Damn, I hate when she’s right.…)  😉

Wow.  I have had a tremendously productive day today at polishing up and unifying the various parts of the new website into something close to a unified whole.  I can hardly wait to share it with the world!

I have a photo shoot scheduled for November 15—three weeks from now—which I hope will provide some great new images for the site.  If I can find the patience not to go live before then….

After much searching, trial, and frustration, I think I’ve located a plugin that will allow me to manage my entire online store here on my site!  (Fingers crossed…)

If all goes well, this will mean I won’t need to redirect customers to Payloadz to access their downloadable files—everything will happen right here at davidmglasgow.com!

Stay tuned.  If all goes well, there’ll be a brand-spanking-new “Shop” tab in the main menu very soon!

Whew!  I’d forgotten how much content was involved in my website before I started converting it all to this new format.  This weekend I hope to have time to finish updating the online catalog and lyrics database; after that’s done I think we’ll be ready to go live!

Of course, “ready to go live” is a mystical beast that exists only in one’s imagination; Murphy’s Law of Web Publishing requires I find that I’ve misspelled my name in the title bar or something equally ridiculous as soon as I’ve published the link….

Ah, the joys of solo entrepreneurship!
