A writer writes, always! So said Billy Crystal in Throw Momma From The Train. But what if a writer has to struggle with their WordPress theme to the point where they are constantly fiddling with making the site look and function the way they need it to? Well then, that writer may just decide that it’s not worth it after all. That’s no good. You need to write. So we’ve collected a bunch of WordPress themes that will help you bring out the writer, and leave the IT work behind.
Now, if you are a writer, you’re not necessarily into doing all the behind the scenes work, like coding and implementing new features. You just want to write and leave all that stuff to the experts. That’s what we had in mind while creating this collection. We’ve tried to find the best looking themes we can, but ones that are simple enough to use that anyone can do it. If you’re worried about making sure the theme you choose is simple enough to function flawlessly, we’ve got you covered. If you long to create a well written story, an engaging blog post, a dynamic and fun travel blog or a family history that really makes your reader think, you’ll want a theme that lives up to the billing as a real time saver.
WordPress is a wonderful solution to the issue of how to craft a powerful and easy to use website. Customizing WordPress is easy and a massive community of coders are constantly working to make WordPress better. Remove bugs, add features that make SEO a snap, all kids of time saving plug-ins and a diverse selection of themes that suit any and all purposes. The world is ready for your writing, let’s find a perfect theme to show it to them.
Wintersong
Wintersong Pro, made with care by the folks at StudioPress, is a wonderful theme for any type of writer. This Genesis framework child theme allows you a wide range of customization options, which is handy if you want to switch up the look and feel of your website. Just change the files in the Child Theme folder so that you can leave the original them untouched. This makes it a sure thing to be able to revert any changes you decide to remove down the road. I think Wintersong is one of the better looking simple writing themes out there. If you’re passionate about blogging, it’s a great choice, because it will allow you to get your posts styled quickly to look just the way you want them to look.
I love the almost minimalist module design in this template, there’s no clutter and junk getting in the way of your writing. Wintersong also offers a custom header to let folks know what your writing style’s all about. The fixed layout makes sure readers find your content front and center in the middle of the page, right where studies show most eyes go when people open up a new page. Wintersong has a landing page built right in too, so folks can buy your books, whatever kind you’re writing, or to see your latest blog post, or anything else you can come up with. This template is responsive too, so it will look pixel perfect on mobile devices. We think the amount of theme options, and the rock solid support from StudioPress, will keep your readers coming back for more.
