graphic design

I offer promotional and book design to writers at affordable prices because as a reader I know how important a good design can be in catching one's eye. I developed a love of design in college and decided to combine it with my life-long love of reading to do my part in getting great books in the hands of those who will love them.

testimonials

 

"Renée is an absolute joy to work with. She wants you to be happy, and she won't stop until you are. She designed my bookmark, three postcards, a business card, a bookplate and a twitter banner in a matter of days. Every piece looks fantastic. She's got a great sense of humor, and it's been so fun, I'll be back for more!" - Edith Cohn, author of Spirit's Key and Birdie’s Billions

"Renée has been my go-to designer for swag (postcards, bookmarks, and stickers), discussion guides, and social media graphics for all of my books. She has a gift for combining design elements from book covers with client input and her own creative flair, producing powerful marketing tools that command attention. She is a great listener with an intuitive sense of what will work, so that design revisions have been brief or even unnecessary. I frequently recommend Renée to other authors looking for beautiful, unique, high-quality design at an affordable price." - Diana Renn, author of Tokyo Heist, Latitude Zero, and Blue Voyage

"Renée took my (very!) general explanation of what I was looking for and turned it into targeted messaging, with the just-right tone and her honed, professional aesthetic. I couldn’t be happier with my swag or my ads!" - Kim Savage, author of After the Woods, Beautiful Broken Girls, and In Her Skin

"Renée has done a great job designing my author website, social media banners, and bookmarks. My site is just what I asked for - light, bright, and easy to navigate - and I love how Renée integrated the design elements from my jacket art with my own tastes. Her work is clean, the turnaround time is short, and she is great about responding to changes and refinements." - Sarah Horwitz, author of Carmer and Grit: The Wingsnatchers, Carmer and Grit: The Crooked Castle, and The Dark Lord Clementine

"Renée is outstanding to work with. Not only is she creative, responsive, and patient, but she delivers on her promises. Her work designing four different postcards for me was so good, I hired her to design two versions of discussion guides for my book. She captured the style and tone I was going for immediately, and quickly implemented any suggestions. Her positivity, enthusiasm, and fantastic communication skills made the project easy, and I was thrilled with the results!" - Kristen Kittscher, author of The Wig in the Window

"Renée is fast, thorough, detail-oriented, and very talented. My guides look professional and classy!" - Mindy McGinnis, author of Not a Drop to Drink

"Renée designed a stylish, sleek, and clever discussion guide that completely captured the tone of my book. She was prompt, patient, and responsive, and I felt very comfortable sharing my feedback with her every step of the way. She was committed to my complete satisfaction and I couldn't be happier with the results!" - Elle Cosimano, author of Nearly Gone

"Renée has a great sense of design and will work with you to get it right. She's wonderfully patient which makes the process a joy. And she clearly loves what she's doing. Thank you, Renée, for the great swag!" - Lissa Price, author of Starters and Enders

"Renée was a delight to work with from beginning to end. She brought great ideas to the table, was prompt in her responses (she was usually waiting on me!), and patiently incorporated my many tweaks. I will definitely use her again and recommend her to all my author friends." - Laura Marx Fitzgerald, author of Under the Egg
