WHAT OUR AUTHORS ARE SAYING
"GETTING BOOK BUYERS TO PULL MY BOOKS OFF BOOKSTORE SHELVES AND HAVE A LOOK INSIDE"
As a former magazine publisher and current book publisher, I have worked with a wide variety of graphic artists. Carole Mauge-Lewis ranks among the very best of them. She has designed/created three of my own book covers (a total of four for Nightbird Publishing). All have been flashy, eye-catching pieces of art that work their magic in getting book buyers to pull my books off bookstore shelves and have a look inside. Carole understands that book cover art is the critical imagery that depicts a book’s interior content. At many of my author appearances, readers have often commented on the “beautiful and striking” covers of my books. I have a strong preference for landscape wraparound covers, and nobody does this better than Carole. She is a cover designer extraordinaire! What makes her so good? More than other graphic designers I have worked with, Carole invests time and energy getting a deep feel for the book’s subject matter before presenting several of her images as cover ideas. I have been amazed how often her artistic ideas dovetail with my vision of the stories. She is an effective communicator and easy to work with, a consummate professional in all respects. At this point, I won’t trust my book covers with anybody but Carole Mauge-Lewis.

"CAROLE HAS BEEN OUR GO-TO BOOK COVER DESIGNER FOR OVER A DECADE."
Carole has been our go-to book cover designer for over a decade. Why? She listens to our ideas and works with us to provide a design that meets our needs and exceeds our expectations. She familiarizes herself with each book to ensure that the design conveys its theme and tone. She creates several designs so that the final product often blends our favorite elements. She is fun to work with and finishes on schedule. The result is consistently a striking cover that exudes professionalism and grabs the attention of potential buyers. Most win awards. We recommend her without reservation!
