Congratulations!
You wrote a book. That's something to be proud of. You poured your heart and soul into it. So what now? Don't just toss a cheap old suit on it and shove it out the door. Before you put your baby out there for the world to see, dress it up like a pro. Your customers won't judge your book by just its cover. Interior formatting is just as important as good cover design. When people flip through the first pages of your book, they form an instant impression about its quality and the seriousness of its creator. Show them just how great your book is by making it look its best. |
Cover Design & Illustration
Whether you're starting with nothing but an idea or if you already have an illustration but need a title design, Alan MacRaffen can help you get the look you want. Print, ebook, audiobook or all three, any format is within your grasp.

Get graphic with a stylish graphical cover. Alan's specialty, these covers aren't just trendy - they're also great for catching your customer's eye. Whether looming large on the shelves or shining brightly from among a forest of other tiny thumbnails, graphical covers are a sure way to capture that professional look.

Dream big! Go ahead and start that epic series you always dreamed about. Not intimidated by long-term projects, Alan is very familiar with series design. He strives to maintain a sense of stylistic consistency across an entire series, creating a cohesive and professional look. Check out the series covers he created for bestselling author Chris Philbrook*:
The Reemergence Series
Careful use of variation and consistency of design allows each book to stand clearly as both an individual work and a part of a greater story.

Interior Formatting & Design
Why stop at the cover - your readers wont! Make sure that the interior of your book is as attractive and professional as the outside.
Be distinctive! You didn't write just any old story. Why should your interior look just like any other book? Kindle formatting is restrictive, making most books look almost exactly alike inside. Alan MacRaffen uses carefully designed and placed chapter headers to make your book stand out from the rest.

Why should your book have the exact same
title font and formatting as every other? 
|
Wow 'em with style!
Custom fonts and header images make a big impact. 
|
Add Interest & Value
Don't stop at covers and formatting. There are countless other ways to add value and interest to your book.
|
Custom chapter illustrations can make every chapter of your book stand out in an exciting way.
|
Have a map that explains the path of your story? Don't just throw in a hand-drawn graph paper scribble when you can have Alan create a sharp and professional looking map from your original sketch.
