- Have you ever wanted to design a romcom book cover? I set myself a challenge to design some bookcovers using resources in Canva Pro only. People in the Canva Tips For Authors Facebook group gave me some titles and details of books (both real or not-yet-existing books were allowed) and I had to make covers for them. This coincides with Book Cover Design month in Debut Author Club, where we are talking about all things book cover related. For more info about Debut Author Club, check out www.fictiontutors.co.uk.
