We created a WordPress site that supports her extensive author platform — from book listings to media appearances and reader-engagement — while delivering clarity, polish and future-proof flexibility. Our approach blends aesthetics with performance, and our aim was to make Cathy’s voice present—from humour in her “Momisms/Dadisms” themes to a sleek, professional presence for dealers, bookstores and speaking engagements. Take a look at this project to see how strategy and design go hand-in-hand when you’re serious about your author business.

Challenge & Solution

Cath needed a platform that reflects her author brand. Key problems included: making the site easy to navigate and ensuring the site looked credible to industry gatekeepers (publishers, bookstores), not just people browsing casually.

Our Process

We began by aligning on Cathy’s brand voice, audience and long-term goals, then mapped out a clear site structure that could handle multiple books, columns and speaking engagements without overwhelming the visitor. Once the wireframes defined how users would move through the content, we designed a clean visual identity that leaned on her humour-lifestyle tone while still presenting her as a polished, media-ready author. From there, we developed a custom WordPress theme with flexible content blocks and custom post types for books and events, making future updates fast and code-free.
