About Us
WILL YOUR COVER STOP THEM?
Now that millions of books are sold on the internet, via Amazon, Nook, Smashwords, Kobo and others, cover design is a new art. A cover seen at 1" x 2" or less, needs style in order to be seen among the 6 million competing books on line. I've designed over 400 covers, and believe me, tracking sales gives you an idea of what works. And, what works for one genre won't necessarily work for another. If you want to sell books, write a great one, then bless it with an equally great cover. If they don't pause to read your cover copy, which they'll do if a great cover compels them to pick your book up or click through, then you'll suffer poor sales.
BOOK COVERS, WEBPAGE HEADERS, AND MORE....
A great romance cover or western cover is relatively easy as compared to a great mainstream. You pretty well know the subject when it's Regency Romance or Gold Rush California. But, trust me, your readers know a Regency era gown and a western reader the difference between a cap and ball or cartridge rifle. It takes a special eye to do a cover that makes that digital buyer click through or that paper buyer pick it up off the rack. And it better have perfect time and place.
UNHAPPY WITH THE RESULT?
Don't pay. I take a fifty dollar deposit for your initial book cover design, and if you have legitimate complaints will do one re-do. The cover will have a watermark so you will get caught if you use it without clearing your balance. Most of my covers are $200.00, unless you become a pain where a pill won't reach. Then I'll advise you and you can drop out with only your deposit spent, or we'll add to the price and go on. Your call.
