Hello, there!

It is my pleasure to welcome you to my creative world. I'm pleased to have this space on the site of the company I founded in 1989, Wordpix Solutions.

It has been my pleasure to work with a great team of professional graphic artists, programmers, writers, printers and customers over these more than 20 years, producing image materials and websites that make our customers proud.

Several recent projects include:

The Bloomin' News, the full color 16-page-plus newsmagazine of the Los Angeles Flower Market, produced bi-monthly for and about nearly 5,000 Southern California retail florists, designers and decorators. Get a feel for this newsy pub at www.bloominnews.com .

Fishin' Trails: 25 Short Hikes for Eastern Sierra Wild Trout, a full color, soft cover, self published book by Jared Smith, who manages Parchers Resort near Bishop, California (and knows a thing or two about fishing), released in 2009. Order your copy at www.parchersresort.net .

Sending Flowers to America, a coffee table pictorial (full color) hardbound book of nearly 300 pages, featuring more than 100 years of the history of the Southern California floral industry, produced for the Los Angeles Flower Market in 2008. I was project manager, editor, producer and the main writer on this important floral industry reference. Learn more and order at www.flowermarkethistory.com .

Self published book author? I wrote, produced and self published these books under the Wordpix name (all are now out of print): Jump-start Your Job Search (ISBN 0-9635836-0-3), Romancing in the Personals (ISBN 0-9635836-3-8), Web Savvy for Small Business (ISBN 0-9635836-2-X) and Successful Website Marketing (ISBN 0-9635836-4-6). I'd love to be your coach through your book publishing experience. Send me a note now.

Magazine article writing is where I got my start as a writer. My work now includes more than 500 articles published on a wide range of topics (from rodeos to art to city project to people profiles and more) in more than a dozen periodicals. Quite often, I take the photos for my articles, too.

It's always fun to integrate your words and mine with photos and images and work with layout and design techniques to end up with a visually attractive product. These days, we rely upon the highly skilled professional graphic artists who are members of the Wordpix team to do the technical and creative work. Their work is simply outstanding.

As we Twitter and Link(ed) In through the days ahead, meet at a chamber or networking event, or get acquainted in the RedRoom or through my writing website at www.pegwrites.com , I'll add more resources and updates, so do come back. Don't hesitate to contact me for more information!

Thanks for stopping by,

Peggi Ridgway
