Cover&Layout, as the name suggests, specializes in cover design and interior layouts for indie authors: offering a full self-publishing design service in one place.

Everyone knows you shouldn't judge a book by a cover, but everyone does. Browsing down a list of titles on Amazon, do you look at the titles, or the pictures? Unless you're after a specific book, the words tend to blend into each other and it's the picture that pops out. So it's important to have an arresting design to make your book stand out from the crowd.

I work with my authors to find an image that represents their book and rework it to make it unique for them. From there we develop the cover for ebooks, through to a front-and-back design for a print edition, and marketing materials to help promote the book, with a clear, consistent look.
