Thank you for your interest in our cover design services! Here is a run-down of how we do things here at Blue Water Books.
FOR PREMADE COVERS:
We offer premade covers for sale from our newsletter or Facebook group. Once a premade cover is purchased, it is removed from inventory and never sold again. Your cover will remain uniquely yours!
A few things to remember:
Alterations to premade covers are limited to text fields ONLY. Any changes to colors, fonts, etc. will require a consultation PRIOR to purchase and possibly an appointment. If there is a premade cover you love for which you would like to change more than just the title and author name, please contact us.
There will be NO REFUNDS on premade covers, and no transfers allowed (meaning, if you purchase a premade cover and then decide not to use it, you cannot resell it to another author and request that we change the info for them).
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What if I'm a current or past client and want to continue a series? While I am no longer designing custom covers, if you are a current or past client and which to add a book or books to an existing series design, I am happy to continue designing those covers for you. Please contact me for availability.
What if I need adjustments later on? If your final cover requires redesigning due to any mistake on our part, we will be happy to correct the design free of charge. However, if you request any other minor adjustments after the final files have been sent, there will be a charge. For small text changes (reworded back cover copy, changing the title, adding a tagline, etc.) the charge is $10. For any changes requiring adjustment to the size of the cover, the charge is $30. For other changes, please contact our designer for an estimate. Payment is required before changes will be made.
What if I need an audiobook cover? If you would like your cover redesigned into an audiobook, please contact us and let us know. The charge for that service is $40.
What if I need a paperback for more than one distributor? Each distributor has a different set of guidelines and templates for their paperback files. A paperback design includes the paperback file for one distributor, usually KDP or Ingram Spark. If you need files for another distributor, there is a $30 charge per additional wrap.
What if I have other questions? Please feel free to contact us at any time if you have other questions or concerns.
