Advice on my author website, please?

Hi all, I posted this in Miscellaneous as well, but was given permission to post it here too. Thank you ahead of time!

So I managed to secure a publication contract for my novel, the same one I'd used for my MFA thesis (Though much changed since then). It's a thriller novel about a group of pro wrestlers who run afoul of some meth dealers in West Virginia in 1997.

I just launched a website for myself (and the book) that I hope some of you might be willing to check out. I'm trying to keep it interesting with regular blog posts that will cover a wide range of topics I'm interested in, from literature to Star Trek to movies to toys...we'll see where it goes, lol.

Any advice on the layout that I may have overlooked would also be greatly appreciated, thank you!
Here is the site:

Thank you again for anyone who drops by!

Big congrats on being published!

I am not qualified to comment on website design, but if I may offer one little point of constructive criticism? The preliminary cover for the book could be improved fairly easily, if even just a typeface and placement tweak.

I'm not saying this alteration (mine on the right) is particularly great. I am a rank amateur. My attempt is undoubtedly also very done-to-death as a style, but it's just an example. )

Absolutely. Though I'm sure someone could do a way better version than mine. But please feel free to use it if you like it.

Here it is on its own, so you don't have to crop the other one.

Congrats again on getting your work out. That's awesome.
