Pauline Wiles is an indie author turned website designer who helps other authors and writers launch beautiful, businesslike websites.

Her debut novel - a romantic comedy set in her native England - was a quarter finalist in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award. Ten years later, it now has over 1200 Amazon ratings. After publishing 5 further books, Pauline realized her Happy Ever After lies in creating powerful websites for other bookish business owners. She and her website clients have been featured by Forbes, The New Yorker, World Book Day, PBS, The Guardian, and Stanford University.

Pauline has taught computing to adults on both sides of the Atlantic. These days, she especially loves to dispel the myths around how difficult a web project should be.

Having lived in Cambridge, Aberdeen, and Germany, Pauline is now a contented resident of California, although she admits to an occasional yearning for afternoon tea and historic homes.

THIS EVENT WILL BE RECORDED AND AVAILABLE FOR THREE MONTHS.
