I designed this for a friend’s book that was published in 2013. She needed a cover pretty fast, hated the generic one the publisher was suggesting and asked me to design a cover instead. I sent a thumbnail to her via email which she sent to her publisher and  they said to go ahead. Took no time at all to do the artwork. Took longer to find compatible software options for her publisher to use since I don’t have photoshop. And I had to get permission for one of the fonts to be used or embedded in the document.
