I'm an experienced logo designer (and avid Christian Fiction reader) branching out into the world of book cover design! You might be surprised at the similarities between logo and cover design. Like a logo, a cover is often the first impression the audience experiences. It can even be one of the main reasons a reader chooses your book. Often, the style of design on the cover grants readers the power to prematurely judge the book's quality. That's where intentionally curated fonts and professionally designed layouts are key to evoking a strong connection, pulling readers in, and encouraging next steps to discover the story for themselves. Christian Fiction has a special place in my heart. Often I have found relatable and inspiring characters in CF novels and various authors' insights have truly impacted my faith walk. I would love to work with CF authors to be even a small part of spreading that inspiration to more readers through captivating covers!

Image of a book mockup featuring a cover design by live edge graphic design with a faux title and author. the cover features photoshopped images of a city at night with a meteor shower sky and neon green and pink clouds, covered in a deep blue indigo gradient. The title reads "a novel Indigo Rising by Taylor Gais."

Above are examples of my design work with faux titles and authors. This style of cover creates intrigue and stokes readers' curiosity! As an avid reader and design enthusiast, I have definitely picked up a book simply because it had a stunning jacket. Not only does the cover draw a reader in, it can add to the world-building aspect of your writing, with fantastical scenery or ethereal fonts helping set the tone for the story inside.
Please note, image collage covers will rely on what is available in stock image catalogs for character and time period accuracy.

These are faux titles and authors, but very real examples of my design skills. Illustrated covers are such a captivating way to engage readers and capture a scene or even the overall feel of your novel. Specially curated fonts pull the whole look together and can cue the reader to expect anything from whimsy and romance to intrigue and drama.
