Raven's Roads
Living an interesting life: the travels and musings
of motorcycling author Linda R. Moore

I find it soothing once in a while to dive headlong into a creative project, even when I have other things to do. When I saw the Gridlines theme it was round about the same time that I realized the current theme I was using was all over the place. I would see the same theme two, three or more times a day just in an hour’s surfing. It’s a lovely theme, and that’s why, but I wanted something a bit more unique.

I already miss having all the time in the world to do this kind of thing, but for all that, I appreciate what I can do. I got a fair amount done on my backlog at Markeroni, too. Now that I’m not entirely exhausted when I get back from work–how quickly our muscles warm up!–I can still do an hour or so then, as well.

Customizing a theme is kind of fun. Each element must be figured out from the CSS. One day, I will even finish my book about CSS so that I understand what I’m looking at. For now, the trick is to save each working copy so that if I mess things up with a single keystroke I can at least fix it back with a single keystroke.

Anyway, that’s what I was doing, and why. I hope you like the new theme. I’m more or less done fiddling with it, now, except to start adding the random header images. From here on in I should be able to concentrate on the actual writing.
