Question
I write quick quotes which I marry with blog-type writing (life’s observations) which can be categories.

I also write verse and am slowly putting them to my illustrated multimedia. Only one is photos (Haiti Tragedy piece I did called My Child).

But this gives me four items, in groups of twos – they can fit within the same categories (i.e. friendship, inspiration, etc...)

I honestly do not know what the reader would like on their end, how I should lay it out.

Do you have recommendations?

My site is http://www.allmytears.com and I have several blogs and had a quote website but I want them together. (Sorry about the movie taking a long time to load, I need to put in a preloader).

I am web savvy – but I am just totally stuck here.

I don’t call myself a writer; I just am compelled to write. http://www.writerscafe.org/doodler222  and some old ones linked to the site.

I have too many and want to consolidate them and create multimedia for some. I just can’t get my head wrapped around how.

Answer
Hi Debbie -
I'd suggest you look at a format like tumblr.com, which can handle, text, photos and/or video and is easy to upload and update. Take a look at that - check out the /archive mode. It's good for multi-media display, but won't give you categories within one site.

Best,
Greg
