Calling Vicki, an Eye Catching Cover

Calling Vicki, an Eye Catching Cover

Selecting a cover for your novel is both one of the hardest things and most important thing when it comes to marketing your novel. Your cover is the first thing that a customer is going to see. It will either intrigue them or cause them to move on to the next book.

I have to say that I like the original cover for my book Calling Vicki. I like it so much that I will keep it for the paper back version of the book, but I did need a more eye catching cover for the ebook. Something that captured the spirit of the character and made, you, the reader want to dive in. I look at the new cover as being the soul of the lead character Victoria Winters. When I saw the picture I knew that it would fit this character perfectly. Here is the new cover.

This takes me to another important part of marketing a novel. Social media. The cover of your novel can be promoted on Pinterest. You can do this, but it is better to enlist the aid of others. I would like you to pin my cover if you like it. Secondly I would like to add that you can market via Facebook. Facebook is another important part of the marketing campaign that you will build around your book. I have a facebook fan page for Calling Vicki. Also I have one that is dedicated to my Empires Falling dark fantasy series. Remember every reader can become a fan of your work and fans are the best friends that you will ever have. They will tell others about your work and how go a writer that you are. Whether you write fantasy, suspense, thrillers, romance or horror you should take the time to build a fan page and if you do not have the time visit Fiverr and hire someone to do it for you. Over time it will be of value to both you and your fans.
