Julian Writes: a Spell in Day Two

The tutorial videos promised that “minor tweaks” could transform a website overnight. I believed them.

Today I discovered something called ‘Custom CSS’ . It’s like alchemy: you mix a little of this, remove a bracket there, and the entire homepage rearranges itself like obedient magic.

For a moment, the banner image moved on its own with the text flickering between “Nick Owen Publishing” and “Nick Owns Publishing.” I wasn’t sure if that was a bug or divine commentary.

I tried to reverse the code but the page just whispered, “Syntax Error.” I think that’s Latin for “You’ve gone too far, young one.”

Nick hasn’t noticed yet. I’ll fix it tomorrow. Or learn how to live with cosmic aubergine.
