About This Website

This is the personal website of Paul Chappell.

It’s my journal. I’ll be publishing some of my photos and writing about the various things that happen to me and the things I get up to. It’ll be a diary, something I can look at in future years, to see what I was up to in previous years. There’s more about my interests on my about page.

I’m using it to learn how to write. My teachers at school didn’t seem to think I could, my wife tells me I can. It’ll be interesting to see if my writing changes; to see if it gets better.

Another use is to teach me how to design and code a website, in this case a sort of blog. Especially how to present and locate information on a website.

This version has been written with the Jekyll static website generator. It works well, but I’ve been hitting a lot of limitations with it. I’m now writing my own website generator. It’s going to take me to the end this year (2026), probably longer as life has a habit of getting in the way.
