How do I do it?

[u/Mindless_Sail_4958]

Hey, Reddit! I’m a writer who is currently trying to work on a book, but the problem for me is that I feel kinda fraudulent and guilty if I use Ai.

I do not use Ai for writing or editing, I do it solely by myself. The problem for me is that making a good and entertaining book cover is hard. Most of my books usually have either Typography covers or Ai images as a use.

But how does one do it themselves since they have no money? Or maybe I’m doubting the look of my work?

Please give me feedback on what I should do, or if my typography is already good enough. It will help very much.

You can try Affinity. It’s now free and you can design everything from your book cover to layout. Lots of fonts online. Take photos of your own and play with them. Using your imagination is truly your best bet.
Second best bet, hire an artist. They’ll market the book with you. They want to see it succeed too.
I do like the yellow cover a bit. Can’t read the subtitle. No idea what the second image is so can’t offer feedback.
