How I Choose My Book Covers

As an author, choosing a book cover is one of my favorite parts of publishing and also how I choose a book!!

A cover isn’t just artwork. It’s a promise of what’s inside and tells readers what kind of story they’re about to step into. It has to capture the emotion, tone, and intensity of the world inside the pages.

Before I published my first Billionheiress book, I had the cover and my book was written around that. I find myself seeing something and thinking “ooh, that’s a great book cover—now I have to write a book around that.”

It’s a vibe—bold, romantic, mysterious, or atmospheric. I find inspiration constantly—from books, old movies—it’s that spark of energy.

What inspires you when you are creating your book cover—is it genre expectations or reader preferences, trends.

I’ve learned a lot along the way and I have learned every book has its own story, long before the first page is even written.

Stay tuned; my next cover might surprise you.
