Smashwords Interview

How do you approach cover design?
This was the most difficult part of getting a book into the public view. The book cover is extremely important and helps to tell the story you have written. I have used a few covers offered by various websites who publish and print books, though I found my diamond in a website called Fiverr. Here I found a graphic designer who has done wonders for me on three covers at a low cost. I have worked with him three times now and will need a few more covers for the series I am writing.

Book covers need to be fairly simple though good enough to sell your book. It is important that it matches the story inside whether it is via a hint from the cover or title.
What's the story behind your latest book?
Our last published book was "LAURA" by Jim Adams. It is a May to December scenario as well as a ghost story. With unexpected twists it is a lovely romantic story.
