Cover Commissions
Taking commissions for cover designs for independent authors! All prices are just estimates, but they could go up or down depending on the complexity of the request and how long it takes me. Please reach out to me at jaydenthompsonauthor@gmail.com with any request and we will finalize a price before we start!

More Information:
-
All prices are in USD.
-
English titles only please!
-
For covers designed for physical books, I will need final page count to determine the width of the spine, so your manuscript must be completed and formatted so it is publication-ready.
-
I will not do illustrations or overly-complex designs (see portfolio for references)
-
Must have little or no spice in the book, and absolutely nothing NSFW on the cover
-
Prices might fluctuate depending on complexity and time spent
-
I will send updates of my progress as soon as I get them, and I will make changes based on your thoughts and feedback. Once the cover is completed, I will make minor changes and tweaks, but a full rework of the cover might be charged extra (but this depends entirely on the situation)
-
I am anti-AI. I won't use it for your cover, and I won't make covers for books that use it.
-
I have the right to refuse any project or to stop working on one for any reason with refund.
-
MAKE SURE you have plenty of time before publication, that way if anything on the cover needs to be adjusted such as spine width or color grading (KDP and IngramSpark do not have good track records with printing the covers in a way that accurately reflects the on-screen image) you will have plenty of time to do so without having to delay publication. I would allot at least 2-3 months so you don't run into trouble (I say this from experience!)
-
For physical books, I will give you $10 off in exchange for a copy of the book when it releases 😁
-
I plan to film the design process to post to my socials. If you don't want the cover/title revealed until a certain date, please specify and I will hold off on any posts until then!
