Pimp my website, win an ARC!

So here's the deal. I have two websites, and I maintain them both myself, manually. That means nothing changes unless I go in and change it. The sites are here:

http://www.seananmcguire.com/
http://miragrant.com/

Parts of these sites are quite out of date, because I have been a busy little bee. We are thus going to play a little game.

Step 1: Go to my website. Either one.
Step 2: Poke around until you see something that could use improvement. A typo, a missing link, an unclear question on the FAQ, even a missing question on the FAQ. (Pages that aren't linked at all, like the Field Guide, or don't exist, don't count. Those are future improvements, not current issues.
Step 3: Post here, suggesting a correction/update.
Step 4: Step away from the website.

I will be making updates and corrections, partially based on this post, for the next week. On Friday, I will use our friend, random number generator, to choose a winner of an ARC of One Salt Sea (US-only, unless you can help with postage). No matter what, everybody benefits, since the end result should be an easier-to-use website.

Game on!

So you've now managed to get me to look at your website - which is a fun place to explore.

I was poking around the extras, and found the "art cards" section. The link took me where it was supposed to - to the cards, but I wasn't sure what the context was. I wanted to know whether they were for sale or just for display, and/or what the motivation was behind them. You have a brief explanation on the "Pretty Little Dead Ghouls" page, and maybe the Art Cards page would benefit from something similar.

Or, it could just be that I'm the sort of person who likes to know everything...

Interesting note; thank you!
