Why custom cover design is right for your book
A novel is a unique work of art. Its e-book and print cover should be, too. And once again, Threepenny's go-to cover designer impresses me with his dedication to this ideal. Phillip Gessert has worked with me on over a dozen custom cover design projects in the past couple of years, so I should know as well as anyone that he's good. But when he sent me a link to his design-in-process photos for a trilogy of novels, I had to share it with you all, too.Phillip read the manuscripts he was designing for (unusual in the industry), and created this series of covers for the trilogy (right). Phillip's series of sketches, alternate ideas, and overall love of the process is just as engaging. For more about Phillip, his other design work, or his process, wander around the full gallery here.
