You've come to the WRITE place ;)
Welcome to Summer Workshop 2017! Registe...
Welcome back everyone from your first official session on WritersRing!
It's been such a blast actually, getting to know you guys and talking to many of you one on one. We hope to talk to more of you throughout the rest of the sessions!
First of all, we would like to thank our guest today koalanindya who will be guiding our workshop today on How to Design a Perfect Cover for your own book! Please show her your appreciation by the end of this session by following her, reading her books, or even saying hi to her! She's very friendly and would love to get to know anyone!
Let's jump into our second session!
How to Design a Perfect Cover
Hey everyone! I'm so glad to be here and show you some of my tips and tricks on making covers, although I'm no professional, whatsoever. I make simple/minimalist covers for fun in my free time, and I'll place an image of some of my works below if any of you are interested :)
First off, here's what I'll be covering today:

Alright, seems fairly simple, right? Nope! Not at all.

Although a story's cover might not be the most important piece of a novel (you know, with the whole 'don't judge a book by its cover' saying), it actually plays a pretty big part! I hate to break it to you but, a lot of us—if not—all of us, pretty much judges a book by its cover. Let's face it! Not only does a well-made cover grabs your attention, it also gives you little hints of the story before you can even scan the first page. Let's put it this way: You wouldn't expect an adventure novel to have a teen girl sitting in the middle of the flower field eating an ice cream whilst gossiping with her friends, would you? Or would you expect that story to be horror? Absolutely not! Right off the bat, you can tell it's nothing dark, but rather uplifting and light, perhaps a teen fiction? That'd make sense.
