Annemieke was a delight to work with. I can't say enough how much I appreciated her creativity, flexibility, and appreciation of the value of collaboration. She's also a lovely human being, and I hope to keep in touch with her in the future in one way or another.
G. Elizabeth Kretchmer, March 2020
Annemieke was wonderful to work with. She was extremely patient with my many questions and was easy to communicate with. She listened to my ideas of how I wanted my cover to look and did all she could accommodate as well as suggest design elements I hadn't even thought of. I hope I will get to work with her again in the future.
Erica Nyden, November 2019
Annemieke, is easy to get on with. She initially produced examples along the lines of what I thought I would like but also some completely different covers. It was actually difficult to decide as all were so different and relevant in their own way. She challenged me if she felt something didn’t work and equally listened when I felt something needed changed. I am delighted with the finished cover.

Annemieke was a DREAM to work with! She listened to what I wanted, we bounced ideas off each other, she gave me suggestions, but I lead the whole time. I never felt pressured to go her direction but she always offered advice when I asked. I ended up with my dream cover! She was fast and professional and fun to work with. I would HIGHLY recommend her!
Jessica Lincoln, March 2019
Working with Annemieke was very productive. And the whole process of cover creation was so much fun. I'm happy with the results!
