  I am a fantasy writer who is looking to create a website. I am open to the idea of having a blog as PART of my site but I want to have just simple pages with links and hyperlinks that feature character art and descriptions, a map of the world with links to detailed pages, etc. Is WordPress really the best site for me, and if so, can you show me examples of other similar blogs and also appropriate themes?

  Hi there,

  We do not really have any example sites that I can provide which demonstrate what you are looking for, however I can tell you that while by default WordPress.com sites are set as blogs, you can create any number of “pages” rather than “posts.”

  You can then set one of these pages to be the default landing page for your site.

  You can also create menus which go to various other pages which you’ve created through our custom menu creator.

  And then our themes can be transformed in to pretty much anything you’d like as our recent blog entries demonstrate.

  So the choice is yours!
