The Story of an Island
On February 10th, Montreal Waterways held an event hosted by la Bibliothèque Serge-Bouchard in Pointe-aux-Trembles where we presented the book “An Island is More Than a Park” to the residents of île-Sainte-Thérèse; many of whom are featured in the chapters in this compilation of ethnographic texts.
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
