- Author biography: click for bio-writing tips
- Author photo: publicity photo of you, preferably professionally shot (click for tips on a great head shot)
- Personal photos: up to ten to help visitors get to know you
- Illustrative accent photos: to lend dynamism to your site (the images must either be in the public domain or you must own the copyright to legally use them on your site, or use royalty-free images. Click here for royalty-free images.)
- Book description: what is the book about?
- Book cover image
- Book sales links: i.e., https://www.amazon.com/Drowning-Game-Novel-LS-Hawker-ebook/dp/B00WR18RYQ (if you don’t have these yet, don’t worry!)
