In Episode 41 of Three Lesbians and a Pen, hosts Kimberly Todd, KC Luck, and Jamey Moody catch up on recent personal and writing updates before diving into the main topic: how to find a great book cover designer. They share tips for locating and choosing designers, including checking credits in books, asking fellow authors, and exploring competitions like the Tee Corinne Award. They also discuss pricing (typically $100–$300), the pros and cons of illustrated vs. photographic covers, using tools like Canva and Book Brush, and working with platforms like Fiverr, 100 Covers, and The Book Cover Designer. The episode emphasizes that a high-quality, unique cover is crucial for book sales and branding—especially for indie authors.
They wrap up with listener messages about tropes, shoutouts to favorite designers, and a question for the audience: What’s your favorite feature in Canva or Book Brush? The episode ends with a 4th of July greeting and contact info.
