Squaresapce Website Template for Authors

This is a ready-made Squarespace website built specifically for authors who want to look professional — fast.

You plug in your content.
The structure, layout, and flow are already done.

It’s clean.
Polished.
And designed to help readers, agents, and publishers quickly understand who you are and what you write.

What’s included (template as-is) 8 Pages: Home Page, Book Page, Writing Page, About Page, Press Kit, Blog, Freelance Page, Contact Page

Why authors choose this:

  • You don’t have to design from scratch

  • You don’t need to know code

  • You don’t waste weeks second-guessing layout

This is for authors who want a site that feels put together without turning it into a whole project.

No Guessing. Get Clear .

Clarify Your Author ARC (Worksheet)

Get clear before you build anything.

This is a step-by-step worksheet that walks you through exactly what to write, gather, and decide before building your website.

It’s the same worksheet I use with my custom design clients — now available as a DIY guide.

You’ll know:

  • what to say

  • what pages you actually need

  • what content to prepare

  • and what matters (so you don’t overdo it)

You can use this worksheet with any platform Squarespace, WordPress, or something else.

This is for you if:

  • your site feels messy

  • you don’t know what to write

  • you want a clear plan before building

It saves time.
It reduces overwhelm.
And it makes the website process feel doable.
