Building Ghost themes for Creators who want independence and distribution.

My name is Courtney. I'm based in Melbourne, Australia.

I'm an independent podcaster, creative producer and Ghost website and theme builder. I love the platform!

A video podcaster doesn't need a blog theme with a video widget bolted on.

A short-form video creator doesn't need a magazine layout. A newsletter publisher doesn't need a theme designed for a news organisation.

So I started building themes that start with the creator's format and work outward from there. Not aesthetic variations. Not the same template reskinned. Behaviour-first themes — where the architecture matches how you actually publish.

Atlas Vertical is the first. Built for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts creators moving from rented attention to owned infrastructure. More themes are in development.

Everything I ship hits GScan 100/100. Zero npm dependencies. Installs in three clicks. Tested on every Ghost release.
