Give a warm welcome to Sharon France joining the speaker line-up at WordCamp Sydney 2016.

Sharon is a relative newcomer to all sorts of things including environmental advocacy and WordPress.

She has owned and run Looking Glass Press – a boutique publication design company since 1987, but has studiously ignored web design up until now.

Wanting to take control of the content of her company’s website and its design, she had a brief flirtation with WordPress in 2013, but wasn’t able to really commit, so the site stood untouched, unloved for three years.

Inspired by the people she met at a recent WordPress WordCamp (Sunshine Coast May 2016) and others at her local WordPress Meetup in Brisbane, she has grasped the nettle and has recently redesigned and relaunched her site.

‘Honey, you’re not even responsive’ is Sharon’s ‘good, bad and ugly story of go to whoa’. She freely admits she is still somewhat mystified by parts of the great WWW but is happy to share tips, hints and her ‘don’t do this’ list with anyone who is just starting out.

And no, you can’t follow her on Twitter because she doesn’t see the point (yet).
