Are you struggling with your Lulu book cover?

Need help with the new system?

Many would-be self-publisher's are struggling with Lulu's new system, especially with the cover. Successfully uploading an attractive book cover to Lulu requires an investment of knowledge, skill, and a bit of money to gain all of that. I personally use Adobe Photoshop & Acrobat 2020. Lulu's new system is a bit sensitive and will not accept files made with free or cheap programs. Inferior quality software could be part of your problem. However, if you must rely on free software to create your cover, I give you some free alternatives to choose from in the beginning of the class.

"Design Your Lulu Book Cover Like a Pro" teaches you step-by-step how to create a book cover for your Lulu book project from scratch. Each video tutorial illustrates the tools you need, and what you must do to successfully create and upload a Lulu book cover.

To date, I have published 11 books through Lulu on the old and new systems. I give you tips and tricks on how to avoid issues with your cover throughout the class. To see samples of my book covers, visit my website at: www.arhampton.com/books.
