A book is not solely defined by the words written within its pages, but also by the cover that catches the reader's eye and entices them to explore the marvelous writing inside.


Therefore, when presenting your book to the world, take a moment to consider the art of cover design. Even the most renowned authors don't always get it right. I don't claim to have mastered it either, but I do make an effort to carefully contemplate how the cover will appear.


To assist you in achieving the desired look for your cover and to ensure it complements your exceptional writing within, here are some helpful tips..


  • Imagine a cover image as the driving force which compels someone to purchase your book.
  • Consider a cover as a visual narrative that speaks volumes.
  • Envision a cover as a gateway which transports readers on a captivating journey, even before they delve into the book's contents.
  • Picture a cover as a work of art that would seamlessly grace the walls of prestigious galleries, attracting visitors with its allure.
  • Regard the cover as the culminating element of your writing adventure - its significance rivals that of the very words within the book's pages.


Master the art of selecting the perfect cover image, and your book will shine like a radiant rose amidst a field of ordinary dandelions.
