You're Having Your Story Edited . . .Now What?

3/31/2014

0 Comments

 
While my story is being edited, I'm researching self-publishing and e-book covers.  Both extremely time consuming tasks I would never have had the time to focus on while I was writing and editing.  With my book in someone else's hands, it freed me to concentrate on other areas that were just as important.

Strangely, with all the sites out there dedicated to e-book covers, I found very few pre-made covers that immediately drew my eye right  to them. And the ones that did, had models with blonde hair--both Alex and Hayden have dark hair!  

I love the covers Sarah designs at Okay Creations, but she does not show pre-made covers on her site. For my first book, I felt unsure of what I really wanted (though I knew I'd know when I saw it).  I'm the same way with everything.  Anyway...had I contacted Okay Creations, I did not want to be vague in what I wanted or be let down if what she created did not reflect what I envisioned.  

So...I searched elsewhere for pre-made covers. I really liked one at Mayhem Cover Creations and also found one through The Book Cover Designer I contemplated. I wasn't sure if the cover models resembled the characters I had in my head, but really liked both.
