Cover design

Give readers a reason to open your book.

Your cover has a job to do: tell the right reader what kind of book they are about to discover. We connect that first impression to the story inside.

A CONSIDERED APPROACH

Our cover design process.

Your proposal sets out the exact scope, deliverables and review stages before paid work begins.

01

Creative direction

Start with genre, reader expectations, comparable titles and the mood of your manuscript.

02

Cover concepts

Explore typography, composition and imagery, then develop the selected direction through agreed revisions.

03

Full-wrap design

Prepare front, spine and back cover artwork around the chosen format, paper and final page count.

04

Digital & print exports

Create the required production files and a consistent ebook cover. Artwork licensing is reviewed within the project scope.

HOW WE WORK

03

Design the reading experience

Develop the cover and interior together, with room for your review and approval.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Before you turn the page.

What should I bring to our first conversation?+

Your current manuscript or a brief description of it, the approximate word count, intended reader and any target dates. You do not need to send sensitive files through the inquiry form.

Can this service be part of a larger publishing project?+

Yes. We can combine services into one publishing plan, with the sequence and deliverables set out in your written proposal.

How are revisions handled?+

Review points, revision rounds and approval responsibilities are agreed before work begins. Changes outside the original scope should be discussed and quoted separately.
