Indie Book Covers: the Good, the Bad, the Blah
3851 Rosecrans Street, San Diego, 92110
Many self-published or "indie" authors give insufficient attention to their books' covers, and then they're surprised when their books don't sell as well as expected. However fine their writing, their words can't be seen if prospective buyers can't get past the covers. Using real-life examples of "the good, the bad, and the blah," Karl Keating will show what flies and what flops in graphics, typography, and word choice. Whether you design your own covers or outsource the work, you will learn why your book covers are your most important marketing tools. Hosted by the San Diego Writers and Editors Guild. Free for members, $5.00 for non-members.
