Hi there!
My name is Wendy. In 2020, I joined the publishing industry during the last year of my Publishing Masters at the height of the global pandemic. I freelanced for a start-up book marketing agency where I reconnected with my love for graphic design and found a new family of freelancers.
Fast forward three years of grappling with the freelance lifestyle, teaching myself the ins and outs of my craft through the hell fire of agency-paced client work, and months of imposter syndrome and self-doubt later, I decided to follow my heart and White Stone Pages was born.
I am now proudly a designer for the publishing industry, and I bring with me all my knowledge and experience of the creative and technical sides of book marketing, of freelancing and running a small business, and, most importantly, the lifestyle of a continuous learner. If you haven’t guessed by now, I love books (reading and designing them!), graphic design, data, and personal development. If any of this speaks to you too, you’ll find a home for it all in my new blog.
As a lover of bullet-point lists, here’s a taster of what you can expect if you’re an author, agency, publisher, small business owner, side-hustler, fellow designer — or anyone with an interest in career development:
Book design tips and trends
Design tips for your freelance profile or small business
How to optimise your email marketing
Reviews of different productivity platforms and self-development books
Tips on freelancing, running a small business, and teaching yourself anything

I look forward to sharing a slice of my world with you!
In working progress,
Wendy
