This month, Michelle Argyle at Melissa Williams Design reimagines the cover of Mr. Nachron’s List by Mike Corbett, who praised the new cover and thanked Argyle for “stimulating the part of us that connects eye to brain.”
Design Note #1: Showcasing the image of the man in the boat reveals the book’s main character and its focus.
Design Note #2: Choosing a font that matches the feel of the artwork drives home the fantastical elements of the book in a way that will hook fans of the genre.
Design Note #3: Replacing the photograph with an illustration gives the cover and the story a more whimsical feel.
Design Note #4: The subtitle indicates the book’s theme and will appeal to the intended audience.
