The Process:
1. Discuss ideas
We start with a 30-60 minute Zoom call with our graphic designer, Rose. This is where you get to tell her all about your book, share any cover ideas you have, and talk about the book’s key images and symbols. Rose then gathers a collection of stock images as inspiration and possible source images. You are welcome to add to this collection and pick favourites.
2. Ebook Cover
Rose will mockup two approaches for the ebook cover design using the source images you have curated together. You pick the design you like the best and can then work with Rose over two more rounds of revisions to finalise the ebook cover.
3. Interior print design
Once your manuscript is proofread and finalised, Rose will do the typesetting and layout for the print book. This is when the title page, chapter headings and page numbers are added. She will make sure the chapters all start on a new page and have chapter title fonts which matche your cover. The lines of text will be justified and in line across the spine of the book. Now your manuscript looks like a book!
4. Print cover
When the print layout is finished we will know how many pages the book has and, therefore, how thick the spine will be. The print cover will build on the ebook cover design, adding a spine and back cover. This is where we add your blurb, barcode and any review excerpts you’d like on the back.
5. Ebook
This last step takes the finalised print layout and converts it into a file format that an e-reader recognises. This file is designed to be responsive to e-reader settings so the font, size and typesetting is changeable to each person’s taste. Our package includes both epub and mobi files as standard so your book will be compatible with all devices.
As a free gift, Rose will send you your book cover design displayed as a digital 3D book mockup image fir marketing purposes and website use. Share it with your networks and start gearing up for the release!
Reviews
Rose, I couldn’t go another day without commending and thanking you for the awesome book cover you gave to my novel, Why Birds Fall. I have received an abundance of praise for the cover. You absolutely captured the aura I wanted to present. The colours & mysterious storm clouds mixed with the planes & symbolic birds – you really outdid yourself. I could go on & on praising what you did for me. Just know I am very grateful.

I wanted to thank you SO much for doing such a wonderful job with “Beyond the Reef”: the covers are beautifully and evocatively designed and immediately look so appealing! I’ve been delighted to show people the proof copy this weekend, and everyone immediately comments on the bright and clever use of photos, fonts and backgrounds on the covers 😊 Also, the inside photos have worked really well – adding interest and perspective without swamping the text.
So, altogether, your input has been brilliant!! I really appreciate your patience and skill in bringing the book to birth – along with Tahlia’s invaluable contributions throughout – it’s been a very fruitful collaboration for which I’m very grateful!

Rose created book cover art for two of my novels. Rose captured the essence of my story which has helped make my novels appealing to potential readers. My books stand out because of her artistic design. Rose was a joy to work with. She is smart and talented, and professional in all her dealings. She met all the timelines of the publisher and kept me in the loop at every stage. I highly recommend K.Rose Kreative.
