I have got it 'covered'...

Imagewise informed me that the longest part of printing a book is the book cover. Therefore I designed that first on Indesign. With the help of Ken and a few phone calls later to the printing company, the cover was ready to be sent off straight away. I wanted my cover really simple with the title of my fairy tale; 'Adriana' and my name on the back, all black. The font I found online that I could download for free called 'Italiano' which had a script style but still easy to read.  I originally wanted the cover font to be a dark pink but although I would have loved it, it was inappropriate for the overall product and could have made it look cheap, tacky and silly. I also though white looked to boring so I played around and went with a gradient of white to grey to black which complimented the style and edit to my image with a dark filter fading on each of them.
