> A 50% deposit is required to reserve your projected start date. Upon email conversation & confirmation, an invoice would be sent via email.

> The remaining 50% is billed upon the project start date. And can be paid within 7-10 business days upon recieving invoice.

> MJD tends to book 2-3 months in advance due to affordable (which means compeitive) pricing & quality.

MJD reccomends booking at least 30 days prior to cover reveal (60 days to release/pub day).

Quick turnaround is based off of the type of illustration, detail, and the author's role in communication for any revisions.

While we wait for the projected booking date, a cover questionaire will be sent and asked to be filled out to gather book specs & design details. A possible Pinterest board will be created & added to. Gathering important details & ideas to bring the vision of your cover(s) to life.

P.S. It is totally okay to not completely know what you want for your cover yet! That is where I come in to help!

On the projected start date, MJD will begin drafting a cover for you. One cover is created based on the details gathered from Phase 1 to bring you a concept. (Multiple covers may be created on a case by case basis to choose from.)

MJD DOES NOT use premade stock imagery for their illustrations and covers. All illustrations are hand drawn on an iPad and then transfered to either Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop. This is another reason why it is reccomended to give yourself ample amount of time for the design process before Cover Reveal and Publishing. Each illustration is unique to each cover.

Each cover package includes UNLIMITED REVISIONS. Which is another reason why we do not create more than one cover concept before submitting for draft.

Once a concept is sent over for any revisions or thoughts, we will then continue on from there until your cover is to your satisfaction.

Once you are satisfied with your cover design, your files will then be saved and sent via email.

A zipfile will be included with all design files, as well as uploaded and saved to Google Drive. You will have access to this shared folder.
