Recently I had the pleasure of attending Dvorah Lansky’s 4th Annual Book Marketing Conference Online. This year’s theme was: “Digital Publishing Virtual Summit”.
Dvorah brought together authors, writers, publishers, speakers, coaches, VAs, entrepreneurs, and book marketing experts from all around the world & provided participants an opportunity to listen, learn and interact with the speakers.
The second expert speaker of the conference was Joel Friedlander. He talked about 3 keys that will guide your book design decisions, no matter what category or genre you’re publishing in or who actually does your book design work. By looking at the principles behind book design, you’ll discover the guidelines to sound book construction.
So If you missed Joel Friedlander’s presentation, here’s a brief synopsis:
Joel shared “Know These 3 Book Design Keys for Greater Book Succes“, they were:
- Design for readers
- Observe the conventions
- Be appropriate for your category or genre
