I did go through the process of adding a book there when I was still using GR! I believe they give you a form to fill out and upload a cover photo, ISBN, etc.

Why I rebranded my business after 16 years | BE3Designs 'Why I rebranded my business after 16 years' outlines what led to BE3Designs' 2026 rebrand and what I got out of it by working with a professional.

This month marks my 16th year as a WFH freelance sole-proprietor, and I celebrated with a complete rebrand!

I wrote about the brand struggles I faced when I first started my business and how having a strategy makes a difference.

My advice: Get out of your own head. Talk to someone else about it!

And what joy that was, @premeemohamed.com thank you for sharing your geekery!

Partway through the podcast I remembered that I inherited a single fountain pen from my dad 25 years ago, and I managed to find it by the end! Nbd.

The Accessibility Crisis of 2026: What No One Wants to Admit Innovation is speeding up, but disabled people are the ones paying the price.

"Every January, the internet fills with glossy predictions about the future - tech trends, workplace trends, fashion trends, AI trends. But there’s one category that rarely makes the list, even though it affects millions of people every single day:

Accessibility." - Tracy Stine #a11y

You don't necessarily need to say "image of" in your alt text for users to know it's an image. Screen readers will announce that it's an image. But it can help readers to specify if it's a hand-drawn image, Polaroid, infographic, screenshot, chart, map, diagram, or so on.

Consistent layout makes websites easier to navigate and understand as it helps users learn what elements to expect and in what order. This is especially helpful to low vision users or blind users using a screen reader. It also helps those with cognitive and learning disabilities.
