Designing your book cover for free.

Hey writers,
how are you today?

As you may know I am all in helping authors to grow their platforms, in fact, as a lot of you know I am hosting some king of monthly giveaway in witch I help you promoting your book by reviewing it on this blog and suggesting it to some of my friends and to people that I think may love it, and if the book is so good it will have a permanent spot under my posts and a direct link to the purchase. 

Today I am offering an opportunity to all authors that haven't published their work yet and need some help in creating the cover. 

I have created my own cover for my first book, The last beat, because after I had payed a graphic designer he just got the money and never delivered the work, after I have told him that he was going to get sued he gave me my money back, so I am having a kind of hard time in trusting people on the internet again. 

This is why I am offering to you the possibility to have a free cover designed by me because after I got dropped by my graphic designer I stayed up all night to design my own cover and I think I did a pretty good job. 
And don't worry, you won't have trouble with the copyright of the images that I will use because I will ask the creator for the permission to use it or I will use a free common licence work. 

There are some covers that I have designed for my self and if you like them you can get one for free. 





This are some suggestions and some samples of what I can do, you can ask for a specific type of cover and I will try and create it or you can leave it up to me, in both cases I will try my best to deliver to you a good cover, or maybe more, as you can see there are two covers with the same titles, and that's because I always design more than one and I keep thinking about wich one to use. 
It's totally free and this was born by the fact that I have seen all over twitter books with no cover, they had that crappy cover that Amazon gives for free, I can help to give a better cover because all of us know, the most important think that we see in a book, actually not the most important but the first is the cover. 

Just write to me an email at readtosurvive.blog@gmail.com and tell me how you want your cover to be. 
It's free. :) 


Just another think before you go.
All I would ask you just if you want, feel free to even close this article if you don't want to hear anymore is a small donation, as you could know having a blog is not free, I have to pay for the domain, I have to pay for your books and I will have to pay for the images that I would use for your covers, which is totally fine, if it wasn't I wouldn't think about doing it, I know I said that I have the bonus from the government but it won't last for ever, it's just for books and I have university to pay for.
This is not compulsory obviously and you don't have to do it in any means if you don't feel like it or if you feel like you are wasting your money, but if you enjoy my blog and you love everything that I am doing to help authors you can help me too with a small donation to my Paypal account witch I will leave here: 
Klaren O'Connor
You can use the email, that's fine too, but the most important thing is that you don't have to do it if you don't feel like it or if you don't want to, I will still help as much as I can for as long as I can afford it. :)

Why you should read the ''Shatter me'' series right now.

I've read many reviews about the Shatter me series.  And I have this bad habit of buying things and then reading reviews, when I watched some YouTube videos of people talking about this series I was kind of regretting the choice of buying it without knowing anything about it. The book got here, I got an edition with three books in one, and I started it looking for a reason to hate it But at the end I started it with no particular expectation. I started the first book, I wasn't loving it but I was still interested in the story. For those of you who may not know, the shatter me series follows the story of Juliette, a girl who's touch is deadly, she can kill people just touching them. She has been considered a monster by everybody and no one actually ever loved her, until she knows a guy that looks like he's immune to her touch. There is some kind of love triangle at the beginning, there is some insta love, but trust me, just go on with the series, i...

Book review: Did I mention I love you?

 This book was terrible. I think this is the lowest rate I've ever given and I don't want to be too evil because the author of the book at the time of the book coming out was 17, she was so young and still has a lot of room for improvement.  Props to her for being able to get published at this young age.  This is the usual novel discovered by a publisher on Wattpad and we follow the story of the main character Eden following the "California dream" she, like many girls her age, has always dreamed of visiting California. Her mom and dad are divorced and her dad decides to show up in her life asking her if she wanted to go spend some time with him and his new wife and kids in California. She said yes and as soon as she gets there she hates the place, and at the end California was not what she was expecting.  She meets her stepbrother and he is the one she'll fall in love with. I'm going to stop here with the plot to avoid spoilers in case you are...

Restore me - book review - NON spoiler review and discussion

I know I have to stop prewriting articles because I always end up changing my mind.  So, I finished the Shatter me series (non spoiler review  here ) or at least I finished the first three books of the series thinking that they were the only ones. I thought, maybe I just need to read the novellas to know what's going to happen next. Then I found out that there are other books to the series, Restore me and Defy me. I've written a TBR and a wrap up already because I didn't think I was going to read Restore me now, my plans changed so I'll be deleting that post because I'll probably be finished with Defy me by tomorrow and it's technically still october.  The last two books are not available in italian so I had to directly order them from the U.K to Italy 'cause my stupid brain couldn't think of Amazon at that moment.  It said that I would have received the books by the 12th of November, I just couldn't wait that much, I saw that the ebooks...
