Book Cover Inspiration

Book Cover Inspiration

When I began indie publishing, my biggest struggle was getting book covers that not only spoke to the reader and the genre of the books but ones that I personally could be proud of. Having come from a design background, I chose to design my own covers and to this day, it was one of the most difficult tasks I’ve ever had to do!

Not only could I not make a decision but when I did finalize some ideas, I found myself looking for flaws in other parts of the visuals. It was excruciating!

 The easiest way to get your book to gain traction is with graphics. We live in a visually dense world and if you want to get your book in front of readers, you better make it pretty! Unfortunately, creating gorgeous, jaw-dropping graphics is time consuming and I don’t know about the rest of you folks but I would much rather spend that time actually writing.
