Philip Chen's Blog: The Eclectic - Posts Tagged "david-ross-design"

After conducting my own modified version of a Beta Test, i.e., putting the product before a panel of fellow authors, the conclusion was reached that although my first cover was beautifully done by David Ross and won high praise as a book cover, it probably did not convey the sense that the book was a thriller. One reviewer (jokingly) said that she thought the book was about poetry. I am a terrible poet, but hopefully a lot better as a writer of thrillers.

After considerable research and suggestions by fellow authors on the Kindle Boards, i cam up with the following cover using a photograph by Tomo Yun



I hope this does the trick.
