I talk to authors being a book cover illustrator myself and often they're not sure how to tackle the design of their book cover. The book cover is the primary selling tool. It's the first thing you see on the shelf, on the amazon store, in news articles, everything. When putting thought into your cover, I find it helps authors to collect images, other book covers even film reference that evokes a mood and feeling that you feel somewhat represents your story. This is a great starting point for discussions. All the best! This is a great opportunity for writers.
