Nowadays, no matter what your profession is, you better have your own site so users can find you online and learn who you are and what you do. This statement is true for both famous and anonymous authors. A WordPress author theme enables writers to create a personal interaction with their audience. It allows you to present yourself and the work you have done, the way YOU want and not the way a stranger journalist, critic or reviewer grasps you.
An author WordPress theme should be very clear, elegant and easy to read. Most WordPress themes for authors include a blog section, portfolio to showcase books and publications, contact form and ‘About’ section, which is used for biography details.
