I love your enthusiasm You have infected me the emotion of being able to carry out something new. I see that you have many long-term ideas and I wish you the best of luck and I encourage you to achieve all your goals. Write them and read them every day to avoid deviations.
Thank you for your wishes and encouragement! :) I will be doing my utmost!
Best of luck! It’s always a pleasure to hear dreams are being followed. I love sleepless nights of excitement, you must be on the right path!
Thank you! I'm so excited right now that I have the 'caffeine tremble' going on, and I haven't even touched my morning coffee yet. Hehe. :)
Let that energy flow!
A brave and well thought out goals plan. As for your banner idea, I recommend you try to get it in EPS format too so you will also be able scale it to professional print of any size.
Thank you, I will keep that in mind!
I found an artist who creates ebook covers for a living and I'm really loving her style. She does pre-made ones as well as custom-made and I'm actually really drawn to one of her pre-made ones. Has a girl on the cover that looks almost exactly how I envision Lyria, has death-birds flocking, there's sea-serpent faces woven into the embroidery that outlines the whole image... I don't know, it calls to me, but I feel slightly guilty that if I were to buy it, it's not an image custom-made for my specific book.
I designed my own covers for my two books, using my 2+ decades of experience as a graphic designer and artist. However, I would have preferred to use a separate designer because I think they’d be more objective from a design and marketing perspective than I, as the writer, might be about my own work. If I could have afforded it, I think I’d have insisted on a unique design specific to my content, even if I were to choose the designer because of pre-made work that fit closely my content.
Unfortunately, after receiving quotes from various designers, there's no way I can afford a custom cover without taking out a small loan. So, have decided to go with the pre-made. :) The depiction on it is perfect! So I have no qualms about it except the mild guilt that it wasn't specifically made for me. Hopefully when I get to Book #2, I have a few more dollars lying around and will be able to commission the same artist. Her work is lovely!
Good luck.
