DISCUSSION

We will communicate by email.

  • Send me an excerpt from your book to feel the mood in the story​

  • Tell me about the theme, plot, genre, symbolism, characters, scenes, environments. Everything you think I need to know to get the feel of your novel.

  • We will discuss what will be best for your cover to attract your target audience.

I will get back to you within 24 hours and we will go over any question you might have. I am happy to work with first time writers, so don’t worry about asking any kind of question. I am happy to help you through the process.

FINDING THE RIGHT IMAGES

4

I'll search for suitable images on the stock sites and comment on what would work for your book cover. Finding the right images takes about a week when several projects overlap at the same time.

FIRST DRAFT

Once I have the necessary photo material, I will work on the cover for a day or two and send you the cover ready at about 30-50%. I will send this to you for approval and you can make any changes at this point, or we can start from scratch if it isn’t working.

5

SECOND DRAFT

6

After the initial draft is approved, I will proceed with the further detailing. Depending on the nature of the project, there may be multiple occasions where I need to reach out for additional input. However, if the project is straightforward and requires no changes, I will complete the detailing process.

FINAL

7

Once you approve the cover, I will send you the final deliverables.

 

9

After finalizing the book cover, I will design a promotional image specifically tailored to market your new book. Once the book is released, I will promote it across multiple social networks, such as Instagram, Twitter, and Linkedin.

 
 

PROMO

I ask to be credited on the credits page at the start of the book like this:

Many of my clients are delighted with the positive reviews they receive for their new book cover, often expressing their desire to provide me with a bonus as a token of their appreciation.

 
 

YOU ARE DELIGHTED

Please, there's no need to send me any extra money. However, I would be incredibly grateful if you could send me a signed copy of your new book by regular mail to Bulgaria. Being able to read your book and add it to my growing collection would bring me great joy.

If you're interested in giving me this thoughtful gift, please get in touch with me, and I'll gladly provide you with my mailing address.
