Testimonial:

Brenda Whetstone is a knowledgeable, creative, hard-working, problem-solving web designer. I wanted an author website for my illustrated children's books that was eye-catching, child and adult oriented, colorful, cheerful, interesting, and user-friendly. This was a “tall order” but one that Ms. Whetstone fulfilled beyond my already grand expectations. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Brenda, I'm proud of my website and I'm thrilled with her work! I highly recommend her work and her!
