I am a firm believer that coincidences mean something, though I'm not always sure what. I couldn't quite believe it then, when I realised the “remarkable” coincidence that I should have a make-over (with new, dramatically shorter hairstyle) at the same time as the new edition of Remarkable Everyday was being given a make-over in the form of a new cover.
BEFORE
AFTER
While I will do a lot in the name of marketing (take a look at my blog at www.writelink.co.uk/blogs/sarah_james for a few of the wackier examples) even I will drawn the line somewhere. This coincidence was not at all planned then, pleased though I am with the results of both.
In fact, my own “redesign” with short hair is more a celebration of successfully managing to lose five stone over the past year. And, if I'm honest, there is also perhaps a small acknowledgement that with a son at school I am no longer as young as I used to be so should start to look more my age (21, of course!).
Anyway, as coincidences go, this one isn't bad, as my website has also recently been revamped. This too has been on the cards for a while (particularly since my sister commented that it looked “rather eighties”) but my web designer, aka my sister, has only just had time to do it. Still, with the official launch of the new Remarkable Everyday anthology today, it does seem like the perfect time to launch my new website too. So when you've bought your copy of the new edition (okay, so I'm cheeky), don't forget to check out my new website at http://sarah-james.co.uk .
