I only do non-fiction. Contemporary romcom designs are ugly. have a look at 1960s styles. I think you could make them come back, standing out yet blending in.

I can't remember who it was, but a KZitemr suggested that when you compare your cover you should take into account whether your book is in Kindle Unlimited or has a wide distribution as sometimes the design can be quite different within the genre depending on this. They showed examples in fantasy and it was starkly different between KU and non-KU bookcovers.

Thank you Mandi! I just had my cover designed but hadn't given a final approval yet. This was SO helpful, and made me feel good about signing off!

I always see fantasy covers and how to make sure you are using what sells but what I never see is Asian fantasy covers talked about and what elements to use to make sure they are cohesive with the market. Could you maybe do a small video on those? I write Asian fantasy and fiction so it has been hard to find what works.

Hello Mandi! A fantatsic useful channel! Question: do you have a video on how and when to properly credit images licenced from Adobe Stock images? Per my understanding, a book is considered an "editorial" and they require any images (even if a user edited them?) used in print/publishing to be credited. Have you had any experience with that? Please make a video if you haven't yet. Thank you!

I really struggle with pinning down what the general feel for the dark adult fantasy genre is (not romantasy). It's made cover design challenging.

Really lean into creating a Pinterest board of covers in your genre. And it should be as specific as possible. So rather than dark adult fantasy genre, get even more specific to see a pattern.

Hi :), can you change a book cover after a couple of years, without changing the ISBN?

Yes! New ISBNs are typically when you want to change the interior of the book.
