Isn’t it true! A Book Cover is the first thing that appeals to us, and later the content. We pick a book firstly because its cover entices us the most then we choose to read its Blurb and decide to buy it or not! Eye catching book covers are a hardwork of both its designer and the author who gives them the idea of how they want it and, in that moment, the author falls in love with the cover once made according to the book’s content and his/her taste. In this fast growing world of publishing and writing, we noticed plenty of books out there online, and most of the time they go unnoticed because of being a self-published book. Here, we are to honour that emotion and honour a Book Cover of a self published author through our Book Cove Contest 2025. We have three categories, Poetry, Fiction & Non-Fiction. Read the guidelines before submitting your file.
