This being my first book,I was a fish out water and I had no idea where to start. Hiring Lisa to do my cover was the wisest decision I could have ever made. She guided me through the process, and helped me to reach my desired goal..

It's been a real pleasure working with Lisa and I highly recommend her to any author looking for that perfect cover. What she can do is truly magic. It's great working with someone that truly loves and trusts the Lord Jesus! Thanks Again Lisa!

Lisa is creative in her work, the passion and the rate at which she works is exemplary. You're sure to get a service far beyond what you paid, what she does is more than a job for mere livelihood but a dream is been fulfilled as she designs your work.

I made the right choice. Lisa was amazingly helpful; had great ideas (and even better instincts); and took the initiative to push things along without me hounding her. Additionally, she was extraordinarily patient with me--a new author.

Lisa has done book covers for three of my clients so far and each one is super-pleased with how well she captured the message of their book. I will be referring her to many more.

Lisa did a great job, worked extremely fast and met all deadlines with plenty of time to spare. She was very accommodating to requests, collaborated well on ideas, was very thoughtful in interpreting my needs and requests even when I was vague. I recommend her and would work with her again.

Book Design Checklist

- Name and website address of printer.
- Name and website address of publisher.
- Book cover (paperback or hard cover)
- Binding and paper choice (most books by self publishers are perfect bound, laminate on white stock).

- Short synopsis of book (for my own information).
- Ideas for cover, which can be developed during consultation.
