The Brief

Industry

Entertainment & The Arts

About us

Small publisher of self help books. Just starting up.

What's your vision?

A cover for a short book to be published using the Amazon tool - CreateSpace. The book is named 'The 7 Life Weapons' Subtitle - 'The Real Secrets of Success, Happiness and Fulfilment. It has 7 chapters outlining tools for life: Curiosity, Confidence, Optimism, Enthusiasm, Discipline, Altruism and Ambition. The book is meant to be inspiring, life affirming and motivating. Design-wise, it should feel bright and attractive, and also timeless. I'm looking for new ideas, clever imaginative approaches to this familiar subject - but also so that it's clear what the book is about.

The Brief

Other notes

I need a cover that works with Creatspace specifications.

Bronze package
