Book Cover Design Brief
We need a full book cover (front, back and spine) designed for one of our authors and a detailed specification doc is attached.
The book is titled, "Hoping for the Best, Planning for the Worst: How to make contingency plans; because planning is easier than coping with the fallout". It outlines a structured process by which women can avoid or reduce risk and uncertainty in their lives. It is written for women who have a lot to lose.
A good metaphor for this book would be one that is related to prevention or rescue. The author prefers something based on a lifeboat or perhaps an empty life preserver (maybe with sinking ship and sharks in background). Other ideas are welcomed.
