If you're publishing on a small budget or just for personal goals, there are options for cheap cover art! While I will always recommend paying a designer and/or artist (even if it will take you a while to save up), I also know that's not reasonable for some. For a more professional look, try premade covers. I explain all that is premade covers for you. To have the experience and bragging rights, teach yourself to do it! I recommend programs and methods for teaching yourself cover art, and give you some general rules. Your cover art should be special to you first. How do you picture your book? Is it for you or your readers? Do you want it to sell? Fit in? Or be unique? If you want a more professional look, be prepared to spend a lot of time learning or pay for a premade color. If you have a specific look or logo in mind, set time aside for practice and Google searches and #DIY!
