It is not a custom design for a specific book, but it is also not a template that will be re-used. It is sold only once and becomes the exclusive cover of the author. Premade covers are often used for short stories because generally they are cheaper than custom-made […]

He has a keyboard and special system that makes sound, though it reads computer codes and doesn’t sound like normal speech…just think about it – by the time he went […]

May 1, 2013 by ebookindiecovers

We thank experienced graphic designer Scarlett Rugers from Booksatscarlettrugers.com for taking her valuable time to write a comment on each of the amazing cover finalists this month. I gained valuable insights from her analysis. Here it is without further ado: Skyracos: So beautifully designed. The typography is strong, the layout and composition echoes a retro style. The detail is phenomenal, especially on our jet-packed hero. What I love most about this book cover is the movement and direction. Rockets in the background, […]
