For the first time I'm going to fill out #1099NEC forms! That means I have a #team! I'm #celebrating this win that I have good #editors, good #proofreaders, and #coverdesigners, and #formatters
#Indieauthorlife.
I'm also freaking out.
If you are looking for a good cover designer in your exact subgenre - go to each of your 30 examples and research who the designer was for each book. This info may be in the front matter or you can contact the publisher and ask. Their covers aided sales.

Dear book cover designers,
Please, please, please put the number order of the series on the spine of the book. I’m begging you!
Love,
A school librarian who has printed and taped numbers on books for 20+ years.

NEW! Jennifer Willis – outline review, editing, book formatting I haven’t used Jennifer’s services personally, but she’s a good friend and her outline review service looks extremely useful, plus she’s got the full service available, from developmental editing to book formatting. The above freelancers are ones I can personally recommend–either I have extensive personal knowledge of their work in the past or I’ve worked with them personally (or both). I can vouch that none of them would ever use AI in their work. But finding the right editor or cover designer is a personality fit as much as experience and recommendation.
My periodic reminder of the page on my website with cover designers and editors that I've used and/or can recommend for authors--especially if you want to find someone who is committed to *not* using AI!

Learn from my #mistake! 🙏 Last week, I posted on here asking for #coverdesigners & got flooded with msgs. The kicker? The vast majority of them were bots. How could I tell? I did a reverse Google image search on all portfolio images sent to me. #authors #writers (cont...)
Where are my cover design peeps?
Can you drop your details or even DM me links?
Currently searching for premades for a book I didn’t plan on releasing this year but just might!
