You don't need to do anything to create expandable posts or read the full story link in your blog. I have already installed the code that will count the first 430 characters in your blog and show them before read the full story Link and remaining in the post page. - “This post was written by” box Configuration
Edit this section search for the following block of codes in your Template by expanding the widget contents and write about yourself in short there. Sorry I am unable to create that box automatic which shows about the post author itself. If I got time and made it then i will surely add this feature to this Template.

<p>Write a little about yourself here with the thumbnail image of your aligned to right.</p> <br style=’clear:both;’/>
<p class=’author_email’><a href=’mailto:youremail@example.com’>Contact the author</a></p>
