New Covers for THE MAGIC WAKES Series

Jun 18, 2022

One of my favorite forms of procrastination is messing around with book covers. Did you know that they say refreshing your book cover every two to three years can help boost sales? I don't know if that's true, but I think the idea is you stay current with the popular trends.


Too bad science fantasy covers are ALL over the place!


My real question is, who can afford that? So, I'm trying to improve my cover art creation skills. It's not my best quality. I'd rather be writing, but as covers become simpler and more tools become available, maybe it's something I can learn. The best thing was after showing my kids what I'd come up with and asking their opinion, my oldest daughter took pity on me.


Here is our collaboration on the possible cover reboot. What do you think?

I think you did a fine job. They look like the fit well as a set as well.

Thanks, Alex! It's all my daughter. She was able to take my idea and make it actually look good. I think these are a better match of the science and fantasy elements, and like you said, at least they look like a set. I had three covers for the series but not a fourth one. No matter what I did, I was going to need something for book 4.
