Every time I do a new book, there’s a whole behind-the-scenes process that goes into designing the cover, whether it’s one I do myself or one done by a graphics professional.

In this case, we decided to go with a outside designer, and there were two clients to please – Kim and I. So check out how the cover was built!

Because of a glitch in the c.im matrix, I had had to postpone the post.

Chamber of Leather Craft

#Leather #covers for a #bible .

As I described in previous post, I was aiming for a #design that allowed the #book to be laid down flat without bending it's back.

My solution is to tuck these sort of "ears" (that are inevitable while using the zipper for these covers) on the back when covers are closed. When you open the zipper, you'll also let these "ears" loose and they will not affect the position of the book in any way.

This photo shows how the ends of the zipper (nicely embbedded into leather straps) are tucked away on the back side of the bookcovers.
This photo shows how these covers look while they are unzipped. These covers are made exactly by this very same book, the fit is absolutely perfect and the book may be laid down flat. The zipper ends will be just loosely on top and bottom, they're not under the book spine and will not bend it anyhow.
Photo shows the leather covers from front. There is a hand carved cross on the front cover. Cross is painted in gold and it looks very beautiful on these mahogany color leather covers.

#ScribesAndMakers 13 March: Shameless self promotion day. Boost away.

New cover for my most popular ebook, Wipptee, available on Kobo, Barnes & Noble, Kindle, and others.

I have tried multiple covers for this book, a mystery/ action adventure set in an imaginary Australian country town called Rakali Springs, but this is the first one I've really liked.

It shows Maddie, my heroine, a very tough woman with serious attitude, who is searching for her missing husband.

Image of a book cover. Text: Jai Baidell, Wipptee. The cover is a portrait illustration of a young woman with grey-white hair, dark sunglasses, red lips and a black tshirt, against a grunge grey background. The illustration has spiky lines around the outline of the subject's head, which is what attracted me to the image. This is Maddie, and she is spiky.
