Review 248

The photograph used as the masthead for this site immediately sets the tone for what is to follow: an artistically written blog that looks at the writer’s life as if seen reflected in a curved mirror. Fortunately this blog is far more eloquent than I am.



Elizabeth’s site is very creatively driven. The images used are mostly black and white, which, combined with a monochromatic design aesthetic, works a lot better than you would at first imagine.



Navigation is simple enough, and works well, although the layout doesn’t go very deep into the site. This doesn’t matter greatly, as the blog is the major focus of the site (it’s been running since may 2000).



The narrative is compelling, and the further you read into the site the more you begin to appreciate it. Though perhaps not quite on a par with bluishorange for sheer literary ability, this site pleases consistently enough to be visited often.burntsienna
