About

Paul FlyerRWT was developed out of my need to find a place to locate tools and resources that aided my interest in web development. When I first started this website, I was not a web professional.  I was a web hobbyist. The difference? I did not get paid by a company to do web development.   I have worked within Information Technology since 2001 and over the years interest in web development has grown and grown.  In fact, it has grown so much, that I started my own small business to help other small businesses and non-profits create a modern web presence with WordPress.  In my adventure over the years to learn HTML and the like, I have spent more than my fair share of time searching the Net trying to find the best web resources.  In the interest of helping others, is why I continue to maintain this site.

I hope this site is of service to the Web-It-Yourselfers out there. I would love to hear your feedback!

Other Things About Me

Love my family. Live in Saint Louis, MO.  Use public transit.  Love most things Web. Love to read.  Becoming a Civil War history buff.  Favorite snack: Chips Ahoy cookies and milk.

Paul Flyer is a pen name I adopted when I first started this site.  The very FIRST site I started to read and follow was Robin Good’s, Master New Media.  I was influenced by his decision to take a pen name.  I, like Robin, have a last name that people murder the spelling and pronunciation.  While I have weighed the pros and cons of this approach, I have been confirmed in my decision by a variety of events in my professional and personal life.  I live in the camp where the use of a pseudonym is OK.  Men With Pen’s offers the best article I have seen on the subject of pseudonymity. Flyer is actually based on a nickname given to me by my sisters. When I was growing up, a popular shoe brand was P.F. Flyer. Since P.F. were my initials, the use of the shoe brand as a nickname became common.

My black and white picture is a sorry attempt at being creative!
