Anthea Sharp, USA Today Bestselling Author

I reached out to Karen because she'd done a cover for an author I greatly admire and I had hunch she would be able to create a gorgeous cover for my new Paranormal Women's Fiction series, Baking Up a Magical Midlife.
Karen hit it out of the park. The questionnaire she sent helped me translate my vision into words which she then turned into exactly the cover I wanted. The whole process was painless and smooth and the end result is so much better than I could have ever dreamed.

As a reader, I bought a few books made by Arcane Covers. I loved Karen's style so much, I knew she'd be perfect for rebranding a series. She worked diligently to communicate exactly what I wanted and made adjustments I required. She had 4 new covers for me over the course of a weekend! I'm so happy with my new covers and can't wait to do cover reveals on social media

T. J. Deschamps

It’s always scary contacting a cover artist - what if I don’t like it? What if we don’t get along visually? The second Karen sent me her questionnaire & followed up with her opinion, I knew I’d made the right choice. My cover is perfect, & even more beautiful than I ever dreamed - I highly highly recommend you choose Arcane Covers for your designs. It’s worth every single penny.

I would highly recommend her both as an artist and a service provider.

Brien Feathers

I am so glad I decided to hire Arcane Covers to make my custom covers for my most recent series. It truly could not have been a better experience! 11/10. Karen is exceptionally skilled, unbelievably fast, communicative, takes feedback well, and is incredibly patient, empathetic, and understanding. She was an absolute dream to work with and I loved being able to collaborate with her and workshop my ideas to achieve their best possible execution. She really took the stress out of having covers made. Now, not only do I have a couple of covers that I'm absolutely in love with, I have a new favorite artist that I will be coming to for many more in the future. I cannot recommend working with Arcane Covers enough! You will not regret it.

We loved the artwork for our cover but realized it would take top notch custom typography to make the minimalist style truly shine. The very first conversation with Karen put us immediately at ease; we knew our work was in expert, genre-savvy hands. In addition to providing a gorgeous design, she was communicative every step of the way and delivered the final product much sooner than expected. Highly recommended, and would work with her again in a heartbeat!

Stephanie Briarton

Karen at Arcane Covers was a joy to work with. She listened to what I wanted while guiding my choices with industry knowledge. She was prompt, accommodating, and friendly as well, which made for a lovely experience. Best of all, the cover she created for my book was everything I hoped for and more!

Julia J Simpson

I am thrilled with my cover from Arcane Covers. Karen was an absolute treat to work with and made every step of the process fun. I already have three more planned and can’t wait to see the results.
UPDATE: I haven't even gotten a chance to do all the AMS ads stuff yet, but I'm making $2 for every $1 spent and my KU reads have gone from flat line to sky rocket. I already have read through in a week. In the 5 days the ads have been live I've gotten over 2k page reads, sold 6 books and my ranking on the first book jumped from 15k to below 3k in ranks. It's been a huge improvement.

Evelyn Shine

It was wonderful working with Karen. She took my basic ideas and made them sing. Incredibly happy with the result, the process, the speed of delivery, and the price.

Rick Waugh

Working with Karen was a breeze: Prompt, pleasant, professional, and FUN!!

Melody Highman

I believed in the series I am developing, so I went to Arcane Covers to ensure the covers for it reflect the level of quality. I found I got to work with Karen over Zoom and so I was able to input real-time for the most important parts of the cover designing. She is also very communicative by email.
A very important benefit of working with Karen was to learn from her marketing and genre experience! Karen understands the purposes of book covers. Combine that with digital art expertise and her dedication to the craft, and the results are superb covers fit to purpose!
This was an investment with an expected high ROI.

Karen is fantastic! I love the back-and-forth process we used to design my cover. She took my ideas and turned them into a cover that was so much better than I imagined. She's easy-going and incorporated my thoughts, even when I changed my mind about things. She was also quick - the entire process took less than a day from beginning concept to finished product.

Karen’s work leapt up and ignited my imagination. It was as if she had been peeking at the images in my head of the main character in a series I wanted to write. The image evokes all the emotion that I could hope for. Beyond that her service was super fast, responsive to any questions I had and if I do say so, great value for the dollar.

Sean Oswald

I couldn't be more pleased with my cover! Karen was super fast, asked all the right questions and created exactly what I wanted and needed!

John Cressman

I needed a cover not just for one book but for two. Karen spent so much time going back and forth with me during the different stages of production to make sure she captured my image of the scenes I wanted on the covers. She really knows the fantasy and sci-fi genres. And boy, can she capture the essence of a good battle scene. I would recommend her to anyone out there who needs a cover made. Oh, and did I say, her fees are very reasonable.

Evan Klein

I would absolutely recommend Karen to other authors looking for cover design. She was very professional, responsive, and overall easy to work with. I will definitely use her services again on future projects.

Cody Whitfill

Amazing artist! Working with Karen has been just a pleasure. Seeing the professionalism and the care she puts into her work is fantastic to see. She has a question and she messages me right away. Communication with her is the way it should be between a client and the artist. She has listened to me change things multiple times and has not batted an eye but has gone ahead and made the changes and sometimes suggesting things that even I wouldn't have thought of. I would work with Karen in the future again without any concern that my imagination would be throttled on her own work. I cannot wait to work with her on my next project.
