creating a fan page for my new book

i have been trying to create a fan page on facebook for my new book. I saw some information on how to make a welcome tab but it was outdated (early 2011). Read as pre-timeline on fan pages. I found some apps that can do this but I don't know what is good or will just drive me nuts asking for money that I don't have. Warning. I do not know HTML. I did post an author bio on Amazon. A friend on facebook then pointed out two spelling errors. I ended up one of my friend's re-write. Does anyone here know a cheap way to create a good looking and informative fan page for a book?
