Welcome to my website readers and friends!

The children’s book section of libraries and bookstores has always been one of my favorite places to visit. I never grew out of that love for picture books, and creating them brings me so much joy. If you’ve stumbled upon this site then you too have this shared interest and I’m so happy you are here!

About Me

Raina Garland James

For the past 25+ years I’ve been producing videos and animations for corporations and government agencies. One of my best skills is having a keen eye for talent, so I get to work with awesome creatives who inspire me daily. I have many favorite projects, including The Adventures of Zobey! a kids dance-along series starring a furry purple alien that has been viewed over 3 million times, and counting!

Why I Write

CSS design awards

Creating picture books allows me to flex my writing and design muscles to explore a galaxy of different styles and bring them to life. I was a voracious reader as a child, and I hope my books manage to give back just a tiny bit of the joy I’ve received.

Cool site of the day

I usually have specific friends and family members in mind when I write stories, and I try to create something I think will make them smile.

Best artist website

I also think books should make great gifts, and be equally enjoyable for adults and children. That’s why I always include funny passages that are meant to be read aloud, and also have pages designed for children to play on their own.

You need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden.

Can I trial Webflow before paying?

Sure! You can test out Webflow on our free plan where you can experiment with 2 projects. Your unhosted projects will have a two-page limit, but you can purchase a site plan on a per-project basis to unlock up to 100 static pages and additional CMS pages.

What is a project?

A project is a website that you build in Webflow. You can publish projects to a webflow.io staging subdomain for free, export the code on a paid plan, or add a site plan to connect your custom domain and unlock hosting features.

What can I white label?

Pro accounts can add their own logo to Client Billing forms and the Editor. Pro accounts can also remove references to Webflow in the source code and form submission emails, and hide the Webflow badge from their staging sites.

How much traffic can the hosting handle?

Webflow hosting scales automatically to handle millions of concurrent visits. All site plans serve sites through our Amazon's Cloudfront CDN and accelerated using Fastly, loading sites in milliseconds.

What kind of support does Webflow provide?

We offer fast email support to paid accounts and prioritized help for team accounts. Community support (forum.webflow.com) is available to free accounts.

How long does it take to learn Webflow?

If you're new to building websites, our video tutorials will get up and running quickly. If you already know concepts behind CSS and the box model, you will feel at home in Webflow.
