Book designer and author Joel Friedlander’s comments on two of my book cover designs that won Gold Stars at his e-Book Cover Design Awards competitions:

“The essence of a great cover design is when all the elements fuse together into a whole that seems inevitable, and which perfectly expresses the content and the author’s approach. This cover does all that.”

“Another great cover from an author who really understands graphics, and has a playful side, too.”

I’ve worked with Eldon on many projects over the years, and he is just hands down one of the best writers I know. As if that weren’t impressive enough, he is very highly-skilled with computers and I.T., and a strong graphic designer as well.

Right-brained? Left-brained? The man is whole-brained!

My first book I knew had to be edited by a professional. Not that I can’t write; I can. The reason is that I was too close to it and knew I was missing things.

But finding an editor was daunting. I wanted the best, of course. Still, there really is no way to know who is the best except by personal experience. Finally, after wallowing around in the waters of uncertainty for long enough, I hired Eldon Sarte.

Let me tell you now, I was genuinely pleased with Eldon’s work. He demonstrated a grasp of what I wanted to say and did more than I expected an editor to do. Not only did he point out places that may be unclear to the reader, he also provided rewrites of some problematic paragraphs.

Without Eldon, 52 Good-to-Know Techbits would likely have become known as the Lots of Distracting Errorbits.

I’m hoping Eldon will be available when I’m ready to have my next one edited.
