Hey y’all–
It was time for a bit of a makeover on the website, thanks to Ashely and George Weis at Author Lab at Tekeme Studios! Didn’t they do a great job? Of course I’ll be adding some widgets and things here and there, so check back over the next few weeks to see what’s new!
To celebrate my fresh, new site, I’m giving away a copy of Wings of a Dream! If you want to be entered in my drawing for the book, leave a comment here (be sure to include an email address!) or on my facebook page (click on “f” link to your right) or tweet about my new website (be sure to include @AnneMateer in your tweet so I’ll see and count it!). That means you can enter up to three times! But you’d better hurry. The comment/tweet deadline is Friday, April 27, 2012 at midnight CDT. I’ll announce the winner of an autographed copy of Wings of a Dream on Monday, April 30!
Send your friends over to join the party, too!
It’s beautiful here. Need to poke around more, but I’m glad you’re liking your new online home!

Thanks, Wendy! I’m loving how bright and fresh it looks. Now to learn how to work it from the backside!
I like the new site! The house at the top looks like it could come straight out of Wings of a Dream! 🙂
Thanks, Carrie! It put me in mind of that, too. 🙂
Love the new site – nice and clean and welcoming. No need to enter me in the drawing — I already read (and LOVED) Wings of a Dream.
You are so sweet, Laura!
Love the new site, so airy and comfy. Have fun with it. 🙂
Thanks, VV. Can you tell how excited I am to be able to reply to people’s comments! 🙂
LOVE this new look, Anne! They are super talented over at Author Lab. :-))
They certainly are! Thanks for stopping by to check it out, Casey!
Sounds like a great book!
Thanks, JoyAnne! If you pop back over here, leave me your email addy so I can contact you if you win a copy! 🙂
Oops! Just saw that I have it! I’m getting used to all the bells and whistles on this new site!
Just beautiful, Anne! Love the design – so fresh and restful!! Looking forward to looking around your new home. You’re a dear:)
You are, too, Laura! Thanks for popping in to say hello!
Website looks great, D’Ann. Super excited for you!
You are so sweet, Michelle! So good to “see” you here! 🙂
Lovely website! It feels so homey. 🙂 Looking forward to looking around a bit more.
Thanks, Gabrielle. Love that you find it homey. I do, too! Come back anytime!
Hey, Anne! You have a very nice website. 🙂 I’m looking forward to reading your new book when it comes out. I already have WOAD so you don’t need to enter my name into the giveaway!
You are so sweet, Sylvia! Hope you enjoy At Every Turn this fall!
Anne–love the new look! It’s really bright and open. Tekeme studios did a beautiful job.
Thanks, Joanne! I think so, too! Hope you can find lots around here to enjoy. 🙂
Found your book at the library displayed on the “New Books” shelf. So glad I checked it out. Recommended it to my sister who is an avid Christian fiction reader. Can’t wait to discuss the book with her. If I win, I will share the book with her and with my daughter.
Your web site beckons one to come in. For me it represents a visual of Shel Silverstein’s poem “Invitation.” Can’t you just see the fire? You are sitting there spinning flax-golden tales, Anne.
Oh my goodness! You have blessed me so much today, Rebecca! So glad you enjoyed the book–and that you shared it! And I love your impression of the website. It makes me happy. 🙂
Love the new look to your website. And of course, I loved Wings of a Dream.
Thanks, Christine! When does your next book come out? I’m looking forward to it!
Love the new site! Looks so fresh!
Blessings!

Thanks, Judy! So glad you stopped by and so happy to throw your name in the hat!
I really like the house at the top of the page, it is lovely. It looks like the homes I “picture in my mind” of the 1800’s. I love that time period. I would love to win a copy of Wings of a Dream, it sounds wonderful. Blessings, Tina
