Kent Johnson Olsen — Author Website Design for a Young Adult Fiction Writer and Social Justice Advocate

A bold, mission-driven WordPress author website showcasing two young adult novels rooted in justice, courage, and adventure designed to connect Kent Johnson Olsen’s writing with readers, educators, and press.

Kent Johnson Olsen is a US-based author, teacher, and social justice advocate whose published works include two young adult novels: The Anti-Injustice Squad: The Cacomistle Team, a high-stakes adventure following roommates Riley and Lila as they confront a kidnapping on a mountain cliff and are drawn into a mission to fight injustice, and The Gann Raiders, a speculative fiction novel set against a world on the brink of collapse. Both books are available on Amazon.

Elite IT Solutions designed and built a multi-page WordPress author website that presents Kent’s two books clearly, communicates his authorial identity and social mission, provides press assets, and creates a direct path to Amazon for readers. The site includes a homepage, About the Author, dedicated book sections with Amazon order links, a gallery, a press release, a media embed (radio interview), and a Contact page, making it a fully functional author platform for press outreach, school visits, and reader connection.

Client/Context

Kent Johnson Olsen, a US-based self-published young adult fiction author with two books available on Amazon.

With two distinct books to promote and a clear mission to inspire young readers to stand up for justice, Kent needed an author website that could present his work professionally, support press and media outreach, and provide educators and readers with everything they needed to engage with his books.

Problem Statement

Without a dedicated author website, Kent had no platform for press outreach, no central hub for Amazon links, and no way to present both books alongside his personal story and social mission in a way that would resonate with his target reader and educator audiences.

Key Pain Points

  • Two separate books needed individual section treatment with their own descriptions, themes, and Amazon order links, without the site feeling fragmented
  • Press and media outreach required a dedicated press release section and media embed (radio interview) to support journalist and educator research
  • Communicating the author’s social justice mission as a core part of the brand, rather than just a biography note, required intentional copywriting and page structure

We built a multi-page WordPress author website with a homepage that leads with Kent’s authorial identity: ‘Author of The Anti-Injustice Squad’ and his thematic statement, young heroes rising against darkness in worlds not far from our own. A dedicated About the Author section presents his idealism, teaching background, and passion for empowering young people to fight injustice.

Each book has its own section with a full premise, an extract from the story opening, and a direct Amazon order button. A full press release for The Anti-Injustice Squad is embedded on the site to support media inquiries, alongside an audio embed of Kent’s America Tonight with Kate Delaney radio interview. The gallery supports visual promotion and school presentation use. The Contact page includes a web form for reader messages, educator inquiries and booking speaking engagements. The visual tone is bold and purposeful, matching the social justice themes of the books.

Kent Johnson Olsen now has a professional author platform that serves multiple audiences: readers looking to buy on Amazon, educators evaluating the books for classroom or school visit use, and press contacts researching background and booking interviews. Both books are presented with equal visibility, and the press release and media embed give the site genuine utility for outreach campaigns. The Contact page opens the door for speaking engagements, school visits, and community events aligned with Kent’s mission.
