RE: Is Steemit the Future of Self-Publishing? (A Veteran Author’s Opinion)
There are a lot of artists on steemit. You may want to try a steem gig for your cover design.

Not a bad idea. But I really liked the designer for my last book. I may go back to him.
An artist that "gets you" is a very valuable asset. (well, as long as their work is up to snuff.) So, if you can afford it, go with who you know works.
I think one of the most tragic stories on this was a friend
Who "won" a free self publishing. And she was really afraid of vanity publishers, so she did her research... but anyway, in a seminar, she one their little raffle, and got the "type setting" for free.
She had her friend artist do a cover... which the friend knocked out in a couple of hours, probably not realizing this was going on the cover of 500 books. Anyway, my friend should have paid for good service.
She basically paid through the nose for a vanity publishing. And got shit for it.
