Want to make your book stand out beyond the cover itself? Matching promotional materials and sprayed edge designs are the perfect finishing touches.

Important Information

Budget-Based Packages Are Now Available

Through my work as a book blogger, I’ve had the pleasure of connecting with so many wonderful people and having some truly amazing conversations. These experiences have given me—and continue to give me—a different perspective on many authors’ book projects. That’s why I want to focus even more on your individual needs. From now on, I’m offering custom packages tailored to your budget. This applies to custom cover designs and premade covers, but not to book formatting. What does this mean for you? Simply tell me your budget, and I’ll tailor the design to fit within it. Don’t have a specific budget in mind? No problem! In that case, my regular packages and their full range of services still apply.
I can’t wait to see your stories come to life!

Early-Bird Bonus: Save €50 When You Book Your Cover Design One Year in Advance!

Get your custom book cover or premade cover now and save money! Take advantage of this special offer by booking well in advance. What are you waiting for? Secure your early-bird discount and let’s make your book cover shine!

Absolutely! If you’re working on your very first book and commission me for the project, you’ll receive a 10% debut author discount as a little welcome gift to the world of publishing. Whether you need cover design or book formatting, I’d love to support you as you begin your journey as an author and be part of your very first publishing adventure. Simply mention in your inquiry that this is your debut.

If you would like to commission a custom book cover or choose a pre-made cover, simply send me an inquiry at kontakt@epicmooncoverdesign.comAll initial inquiries are, of course, non-binding. After we’ve exchanged some initial information and I’ve answered any questions you may have, I’ll send you a questionnaire to help me understand the key details of your book and your design preferences. To complete the questionnaire, I’ll need your full name and address. Unfortunately, I cannot accept questionnaires without this information. Naturally, I treat your personal data confidentially and will not share it with third parties. Once I’ve reviewed your answers, you’ll receive a personalized quote tailored to your project. You’ll then have two weeks to accept or decline the offer. If you decide to work with me, I’ll send you the first invoice for 50% of the total project cost. This initial payment is non-refundable if you decide to cancel the commission. Once the payment has arrived and all outstanding questions have been clarified, I’ll begin working on your designs. As soon as possible after the project begins, you’ll receive your design drafts with a watermark. Don’t worry—the watermark will be removed from the final files. Your package includes up to three rounds of revisions. Please make sure to collect all your requested changes in a single email for each round, as only three revision rounds are included in the price. Once you’re happy with the cover, I’ll send you the second invoice for the remaining balance. After receiving your payment, I’ll email you your finished, watermark-free files via a Google Drive link.
We can discuss everything else calmly and at your own pace. I am always happy to take the time needed for your project and am available to answer any questions you may have.

  • Revisions and drafts: The price includes three rounds of revisions and two to three design drafts. Any additional revision rounds will be charged separately, starting with the fourth round.
  • Proof copy: I’d love to receive a printed copy of your book. This allows me to check the quality of the finished product.
  • Discounts: I offer discounts for series cover designs and debut novels.
  • Stock images: I use stock photography from Adobe Stock and purchase images under the Standard License. If you plan to sell merchandise featuring your book design, you’ll need to obtain the appropriate Extended License for the images yourself. I’ll gladly provide you with the relevant image IDs upon request.
  • Usage rights: Unless we agree otherwise, you’ll receive a non-exclusive license to use all covers and graphics I create for you.
