My goal this summer for clientk
is to put together
4 Best Of… eBooks
(one for each year 2005 to 2008
and yes, Elisha, I agree,
it is about f***in’ time).
I know the importance of covers
(The Times Online states
“Studies show that a book on a three-for-two table
has about one and a half seconds to catch a reader’s eye.
If it is picked up,
it is on average glanced at
for only three to four seconds.”
– that’s all cover)
so I wanted to get the best cover art I could.
I contacted the designer
of my very popular Invisible cover.
Her charge out rate for a cover?
$50-75
An absolute bargain.
For one time activities,
it makes absolutely NO sense
to do it yourself.
There is always someone who can do it better
for less.
