Roderick Brydon – Designer

I'm always excited to meet self-publishing authors and indie publishers with an adventurous, modern voice.

Specialities include modern horror, thrillers, drama, often with a unique (sometimes humorous) twist - with an emphasis on strong titling to shine in the 'thumbnail' world.

My services include all facets of cover design - illustration, type, and formatting. I can also provide advertising materials (but not animations or book trailers) and any assets associated with the cover needed for getting your book out into the world.

--------------RECENT TESTIMONIALS----------------

"Roderick has a real talent for illustrating and designing eye-catching covers. Unlike so many designers today, he doesn't settle for generic stock designs but actually creates something new and original. He's also astoundingly fast with turnaround time, without sacrificing quality. We've been really impressed with the five covers he has done for us so far and look forward to working with him on others in the future."

—VALANCOURT BOOKS, James D. Jenkins

"Roderick is a master of visual storytelling, and his cover designs are nothing short of stunning. I had the pleasure of working with him on a recent short story collection, and his ability to capture the essence of the overall theme in a single image is remarkable. From the very beginning, Roderick was collaborative and deeply attentive to the emotions I wanted the cover to convey. He took time to understand the intricacies of the narrative and delivered a design that exceeded my expectations.

What sets Roderick apart is not only his artistic talent but his incredible attention to detail. His use of color, texture, and symbolism brought the cover to life in a way that truly resonated with the tone of the collection. The finished design is not only eye-catching but also deeply meaningful, perfectly reflecting the heart of the story."
