Cover concepts
A few directions across genres. Every cover starts with a look at what's selling in your category right now. Add your own finished covers here as you take on client work.
A warm gradient and soft circle read as sunset from across a room — the genre signal romance readers scan for on a shelf or a thumbnail.
Black background, one hard red line, tight sans type. Thriller covers sell on contrast and unease, not detail.
A map-frame border and a single star signal 'world to explore' before a reader has read the title.
Muted paper tones and one quiet illustrated object — memoir covers undersell rather than shout.
An upward bar chart and confident yellow — business readers expect a promise of growth, stated plainly.
