Preface
As a writer, you don't need to hunt for a publisher anymore. You can publish your books on your own. The landscape has changed so much over the years. And this has flooded the market with great books.
However, the problem is that most of these books are published by writers with no designing experience. This ineptness shows on the cover.
A cover is like a sign telling customers to get into your shop. If it is unattractive, it will only succeed in driving them away. And you will have losses, and go out of business.
Research indicates that 74% of decisions to buy a book are based on the cover. So clearly, you must give it the attention it deserves. Otherwise, you will waste time writing words that will only be read by a handful of your audience.
In this book, I will give you tips to make a great book cover. By following them, you can bet your work will get attention.
Your ideas deserve to be read. And that starts with a good cover.
So let's go discover how you can make one!
