Omigod, has this one been a long time coming. I mentioned it to y'all way last summer, when my publishers first came to me with the idea for a mixed media website and asked me to help edit it. At first we thought it would launch in October, and then in November, and then the first of January. But if you've ever worked with A Real Website, with designers and developers and technology people who are doing a bunch of other things, well, you know. We've been having conference calls for months now, with me here in The Middle of Nowhere, West Texas, and my editor in Phoenix, and other editors in Denver and Cincinnati and New York City, all working and tweaking and uploading podcasts and book notes and videos and interview and photos and--
Oh, my. I'm exhausted just thinking about it.
And right this minute, as I type this note to y'all, the editors are still uploading stuff. And
Yay!
Now, what I need from y'all, please, is help getting the word out. It's always tough when you're starting from scratch and don't have a site already so you can just link people over.
You can find us on Facebook soon (we're still working on that page) and you can follow us on Twitter at cMixedMedia. I'll have badges and all that great stuff soon, but right now, it's time for launch, and here we go!
XO

Oh yea! It looks just ever so yummy!!!I signed up and tried to download the e-book but it didn't work. Don't freak out though......my computer is less that cooperative many times! I will keep working on it. Good job Rice! I will spread the word far and wide. (even to a galaxy far far away...)

Thank you SO much for stopping by. Hey, Jude--I'm sorry it didn't work and forwarded the info to the editors who are working on the site. There are still lots of things to tweak, and I appreciate your letting me know so I can pass on the info. Sorry to inconvenience you, though~~XO
from Julie,
CreateMixedMedia.com is a very professional looking site. I've saved it in my favorites file and I will enjoy perusing it. This is going to be fun!
This will be THE go-to site for all of us! I am so happy to be a part of it!
In a word...awesome. I posted the link on my FB page, and will also add the link to "Web sites I recommend" on my blog.
Looks like a pretty interesting site. Will pass the word along.

I don't have a blog so I am passing the news about Northlight Books new website CreateMixedMedia.com
to other bloggers.
I am a regular purchaser of Northlight publications. Their art instruction books have so helpful and I have had a wonderful time learning from them.
I signed up and looked around......love it! The ebook is full of good stuff (2 articles from Ruth....yay!). I told 2 friends (maybe they'll tell 2 friends....lol). Thanks, Ricë
Wow! This looks fantastic. I've tweeted it and put a note on Facebook. I've also Stumbled it. It won't take long for you to get lots of users there.
Looks great! Congratulations! I'll certainly pass it on in my next blog post.
This new site is fabulous - it's going to be big on my hit list! I posted the link on my FB page and am headed for my blog right now to further spread the news! Congratulations! and Thanks! for all of your hard work... it's gonna be worth it!
Rice, it is fabulous! I was able to access everything I tried, even the e-book. Thank you and all involved. Now, back to Create!
Came back to say the e-book loaded fine and looks great. Have passed the word on to several artist friends. Thanks!
Hey, thanks SO much for going to visit! I'm so excited and sooooo tired. Who knew launch day would be so hectic? We're still waiting on the badge/button from the tech guys in denver, and those should be here soon (they were supposed to be here today, but everyone's swamped). I can't wait--I hope they look really cool. Probably not bright orange and purple, though, huh?
Come back tomorrow--I'm going to do something fun to celebrate. See, I'm telling y'all that to make sure I get it done!

Congratulations!
Very cool.

Had a quick peek and it looks great. Added it to the links on my blogs sidebar. Now I'm going back to check out the E book.
