GOOD THEME FOR AUTHORS?
-
Hi guys, I have a wordpress site. http://www.thehorrorinmyheart.com but I want to buy a new theme that will allow me to sell my books on line and just be a bit more friendly to the user in terms of finding my posts, connecting with twitter and FB etc. I also want something that people can sign up to subscribe to putting in their email address. I also need a blog. I would like it to look a lot more like a regular website than the one I currently have, which just looks like a blog. Can anyone suggest some options? I would really appreciate it. I am not a techno wiz so I need something that is very easy to operate from this end. I get totally lost with wordpress. Also does anyone know if I can I keep what I already have here on this blog including the people who follow me currently? Thank you

Lots of themes work well for authors! You might draw some inspiration for this roundup of authors on WordPress.com:
If you’re looking for a particular layout or style, try clicking the More tab here to do a search:

Many themes come with a social links menu, or you can use the social media icons widget to highlight your social media a profiles in a widget area, in any theme.
I also want something that people can sign up to subscribe to putting in their email address.
You can add a Follow Blog widget in any theme’s widget area to let people sign up for updates:

You won’t lose any data – including followers – when switching themes. You may need to reset menus and widgets – here’s a list of what to watch out for when switching themes:
