Premium Author Websites

Your story deserves a site worth reading.

AuthorLuxe builds cinematic, brand-forward websites for independent authors — sites that Wix can't touch and readers won't forget.

  • J.C. Morvino homepage — dark cinematic hero with book cover
  • J.C. Morvino series page — four-book grid
  • J.C. Morvino author page — editorial photo treatment

Why AuthorLuxe

We build what Wix can't.

  • Genre-Matched Design

    Every site is designed to fit your genre, your readers, and your brand — not a template someone else already used.

  • Fast, Clean, Modern

    Built on Next.js and deployed on Vercel — your site loads in milliseconds, ranks well on Google, and works perfectly on every device.

  • Cinematic Interactions

    Scroll animations, page transitions, and micro-interactions that make readers feel your world before they read a word.

Services

Three tiers, one standard.

Every AuthorLuxe site — at every price point — is built with the same care, the same code quality, and the same attention to your brand.

Let's Talk

All packages include a 30-minute discovery call, final site delivery with a handoff guide, and the option to add a monthly care plan for ongoing support.

The Process

From brief to published in four steps.

  • 1

    Discovery

    We start with a 30-minute call to understand your genre, your readers, your brand, and your goals.

  • 2

    Design Brief

    You fill out our author intake form. We create a complete design brief — palette, typography, layout, and copy direction.

  • 3

    Build

    We build your site in Next.js — the same framework behind some of the fastest sites on the web, not a drag-and-drop page builder. You review and approve at every stage.

  • 4

    Launch

    We connect your domain, submit to Google, and hand you the keys — with a full guide to managing your new site.
