Author Websites: 7 Of The Best Writers' Sites (PHOTOS)

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 11/18/10 07:05 AM ET   Updated: 05/25/11 07:15 PM ET

Authors: masters of language, but often not the web. Even some writers with massive Twitter followings and social media campaigns don't have useful websites. Does it matter? Depends on how you want to be perceived when people are searching for you. When we asked this week on Twitter and Facebook for the best author websites, we received the names of only a few that impressed us.

Nevertheless, we've pulled together some of the best of what you sent in. What do you think: Are these the best author websites out there? Which awesome sites did we leave out? Let us know. We'd love to highlight the really great ones.
