David Riedy – Designer

I've been designing book covers for over 20 years and love every opportunity to make an eye-catching cover that speaks to the book's purpose

Overview

Working with me is a conversation. I'm here to serve your book and to add my creative frosting to the delicious cake you've worked hard to bake. I want to know you and the book. We will discuss comps (similar titles) and marketplace and vision. I will create multiple options and we will discuss those and I will go back to revise or start again. We will do this until we get it just right.
