Book Cover Design Services

(Click on image to see the full cover.)
  ​A cover is like a window into the book's soul.
While many people cling to the phrase, "Don't judge a book by it's cover"...the truth is many people do. Unless the cover grabs your attention in a bookstore or on Amazon you're not going to stop to look at it any further. I believe that having a well executed, unique cover is one of the most important parts of publishing, but I know that as an Indie publisher this can be a difficulty.

Professional covers have sky-high prices, easily in the hundreds of dollars.
For a lot of us, this is just not an option--so many turn to cheaper alternatives, such as stock covers or attempting it yourself. The end result is usually a poorly done cover just like all the others...and I feel that this not only lets you down, but also your book. 

That is why I am offering inexpensive--yet beautiful--book cover design services.
I have studied book cover design and typography extensively, and am myself an Indie publisher. I design many different styles of book covers, from clean modern to charming old-fashioned. While I desire to create book covers that will harmonize with other books in its genre I also strive for originality. I think that especially in the Christian book realm covers can end up all blending together because of how similar they all are. I hope to make your book stand out on the shelf so it will grab potential reader's attention! 

My book covers are priced from $35 to $70 dollars. 
The price depends on the difficulty and intensity of the work involved. I offer front (Kindle) covers for $35 as well as Print book covers, (front and back) for $70.  **Please note: I do not offer book formatting services, and spines only by special request and for an extra fee of $10.** If you are interested in using my services or have any questions/comments, please drop me a note at: jpbookbug@gmail.com. I look forward to working with you! 

Genres of Books I Will or Will Not Accept:
Based on my own personal standards and convictions there are some specifications I require. My main focus is for Christian books, so if your book is not Christian I will probably decline it. (Though I may accept nonfiction even if it is not under the Christian label). That said, there are a few genres that are often found in Christian bookstores and marketed as Christian that I will not be able to accept. These include:​
--Horror/Supernatural
--most Fantasy
--most Sci-fi
-- and some Romance
(this is dependent on the book)
I also have the right to withhold design services at any time if I feel that I am unable to help you. Thank you for understanding.
