Every guide on selling books tells you the same thing: readers need somewhere to find you. Then it quietly assumes you will buy a domain, pick a website builder, wire up a mailing list, and keep all of it in sync with the books you keep publishing.
The AIWriteBook author page removes that whole detour. It is a real public page โ indexable, shareable, and built from the profile and books already sitting in your account. Publish a new book and it appears in the grid. Pause the page and it goes dark. There is nothing to host, nothing to redeploy, and nothing to keep in sync by hand.
How your author page works
The page is assembled from your profile and your finished books. Setup lives in one screen, and everything saves as you type.
- 1
Fill in your author profile
Open the Author Page screen and add your name, a bio, and a photo โ the uploader lets you crop it into the round portrait the page uses. The bio supports line breaks, so an opening hook, a short history, and a closing line all keep their shape.

Choose your URL and your domain
Your page starts on a generated slug, and you can change it to anything you like in lowercase letters, numbers, and underscores. Then pick the domain it lives on: aiwritebook.com or nanoreads.com. Copy the link or open it in a new tab straight from the editor.

Add your links
List the places you already exist โ a newsletter, a Substack, a Goodreads profile, an Instagram account โ each with a label, a URL, and an optional one-line description. They render as buttons on the page and are also emitted as structured data so search engines connect the profiles to you.

Publish books and they appear
Any book of yours that has a title, a cover, and a written first chapter shows up in the grid automatically. Each book gets its own public book page, and you can hide individual books or pause the whole author page with one toggle.
What the author page actually does
It is not a link-in-bio placeholder. These are the parts that do real work for you.
One link for everything
Your photo, bio, external links, and every published book on a single page โ the URL you put in a bio, a signature, an ad, or the back matter of a paperback.
A book grid that maintains itself
Covers, subtitles, genre tags, and blurbs are pulled from each book, and your top buy links surface right on the card. Publish another book and the grid grows; hide one and it disappears.
Search metadata done for you
The page emits its own title, description, canonical URL, Open Graph and Twitter card images, and Person structured data with your external profiles as sameAs links. Shared on social, it unfurls with a cover image instead of a bare URL.
Readers you can reach again
Emails collected through your book pages land in a subscriber list you can search, export as CSV, or email a launch announcement to โ so a reader who finished chapter one is someone you can tell about book two.
Who the author page is for
Different writers use the same page for very different jobs.
- First-time authors
- You have one finished book and no platform. The author page gives you something credible to link to on day one instead of a bare Amazon listing.
- Self-publishers
- You sell on several stores. The page collects all of them in one place, so a single link works everywhere and you never have to update three bios at once.
- Series writers
- Readers who finish book one need to find book two. The grid keeps the whole series visible, and the subscriber list lets you announce the next release.
- Writers under a pen name
- Pick the slug, the photo, and the bio that belong to the name you write under, and choose whether the page sits on aiwritebook.com or nanoreads.com.
You control whether the page is live
One toggle switches the whole author page on or off. While it is off, the URL serves a paused notice instead of your profile, and search engines are told not to index it. Individual books have their own visibility switch, so you can stage a launch without taking the page down.
What you fill in, what a reader sees
The setup screen is short. The page it produces is not.
What you fill in
Name: Mara Lindqvist. Bio: three paragraphs about writing cold-weather crime fiction. Photo: one upload, cropped round. Links: Newsletter, Goodreads, Instagram. Slug: mara_lindqvist. Domain: aiwritebook.com.
What a reader sees
A portrait, a name, a book-count badge, the genres you write in, your bio in full, three link buttons โ and under it a grid of every published book with its cover, subtitle, up to three genre tags, blurb, an Open button, and your first two store links. All at aiwritebook.com/author/mara_lindqvist.
Nothing on the reader-facing side is typed twice. The badges, the genre tags, and the whole book grid are derived from books you already finished.

One link that grows with your catalogue
An author page only earns its keep if it stays current. Because yours is generated from the same profile and the same books you already work on inside AIWriteBook, it is current by default โ every new cover, blurb, and buy link shows up the moment you publish, and every reader who unlocks a chapter becomes someone you can reach again.
