INTRODUCTION
A book cover serves as the initial point of connection between the book and its readers. It creates a first impression and can significantly influence a reader's decision to pick it up or ignore it.
A visually appealing, professional cover implies that the content within is just as refined and captivating, and while the content of the book is ultimately what sustains a reader's interest, the cover plays a crucial role in attracting them in the first place. For these reasons, as well as others, your book cover should be well thought of and well designed.
WHY ENTER THIS CONTEST?
When you enter our contest, your book cover is evaluated on various criteria by our panel of judges, and the public can also vote on the overall appeal of your cover with a thumbs up. Both the judges and the public votes are combined in the final score. This evaluation can help you revise your current cover, if needed, and can help you with new cover design for your future works.
In addition, recognition and credibility come with winning awards, and awards are a great marketing vehicle. With recognition by others comes also the opportunity to let the world know about your work, something that can be done using press/media releases and social media postings, as the more your name and your titles appear out there, the more you increase your chances for your work to be found by book buyers.
