No, we're not putting the cart before the horse! The cover is integral to book sales. Let's face it, when is the last time you picked up a book and thought to yourself, "Hey, this is a drab cover, I think I'll buy it"?
So, there are several things authors have to consider such as :
- The central theme of the book - how can it be displayed on the cover?
- What colors should be used?
- What font should be used?
- What size book will it be?
There are all types of issues to consider. That's where we are right now, as Alan is working with a young lady that is a very talented graphic artist in Beijing. When she finishes a draft of the cover, she sends a copy to Alan and myself.
You know what I think? The internet is a godsend.Stay Tuned and Spread the Word. Remember drive the traffic.
