As of February 1, 2012, An Author's Art has joined forces with Linda Boulanger of Tell-Tale Cover Design and TreasureLine Designs. As required by this partnership, my prices have gone up. Some will say it's worth it and some will move on to other designers. Either way works for me.

The new prices are as follows: 
  • Custom eBook covers (front only) are $75 and include a print quality image file that can be paired with your own back and spine, as well as used in printed promotional materials. 
  • Custom print covers (front, back, spine) are $125 and include a front cover file for eBook use. 
  • Premades are $40 but can be customized for an additional fee.  
For those who have already entered into a design contract with me (i.e., I'm already neck-deep in the creation or execution of your requested design), these prices do not apply to you. For anyone who receives a special deal (i.e., 10% off anything you order, forever), that discount will still apply, but according to the new price scale. I will also be more diligent in charging for excessive changes, so please keep this in mind. 
 
You may be wondering why I'd make this decision. I started this cover design site just over a year ago. It was meant to be a hobby, not a career. And though I've come nowhere near making enough to support my family, I've had more cover orders than my personal time will allow. As a result, writing took a bit of a back seat and for a writer, that's just not acceptable. 
 
Watch this blog for updates and new covers. I'm going to attempt to be more diligent about blogging too.

Not to mention that your covers are wonderful and worth far more than you have been charging. I KNOW the work you put into each and every one and you are definitely worth it, my friend.
