About us

I'm self-publishing a book (historical fiction)

What's your vision?

I'm looking for a cover (600 dpi, CMYK) for my book (historical fiction, with a mystical / supernatural dimension). Templates are included. My 3 wishes: 1) I want a (somewhat) dark abstract theme (by "abstract" I mean that the reader will understand that it's not a literal depiction of some scene in the book). Preferrably mystical ! 2) I want there to be some background on the book spine 3) I need all the source files (such as the EPS file, the background picture and font names) The reason for 2 and 3: I intend to create a matching cover for a DVD that should look nice together with the book on the book shelf. I've included a zip file with detailed information AND 3 cover ideas of my own (you DO NOT have to choose any of them). Those ideas are in the subfolders "hourglass", "stairway" and "symbol"

Caught - Historical Novel

Caught - Historical Novel

I wanted to create a cinematic layout that screamed historical romance. The woman was photo manipulated to resemble the characteristics of the heroine and the duel scene at the back cover was created out of different stock elements. I also added some aging effects to the title font to make it look more appropriate for this genre and give a more unique feel to the overall layout.

Book cover for “Help! Ik Verveel Me” by Karin van Driel

Book cover for “Help! Ik Verveel Me” by Karin van Driel

“Help! Ik Verveel Me” (translated from Dutch "Help! I’m bored") is the story about Sarah, an 11 years old girl, and a crazy idea of her parents: a week without a phone. Without it, Sarah doesn't know what to do. But because she is bored, she dreams about so many things and she finds out that a little boredom is not so bad. It makes her creative. The design was made using some of the illustrations of Charmaine Lam, that also appear in the interior of the book. As these illustrations represent drawings as being made by a child, I kept the same style in order to respect the initial vision of the illustrator and the author. I had to dedicate a special attention to all the new elements that were added to the book cover. For that, I followed the same kind of trace and textures of the existing images. However, the colors were slightly intensified to catch the attention of the viewers. The choice of fonts also helped to give a certain “childish style” to the entire design.
