Choose the Right Template

A book design template: a dashed-line icon of an open book.

Find a book design template that fits your genre, audience, and tone.

Your book’s cover is how you catch readers’ eyes, but the interior design of your book determines how they read your story. Line after line, page after page, the book you’ve crafted deserves to look its best. A well-designed book invites readers in and makes the reading experience smooth, sustainable, and beautiful. A poorly designed book won’t sit quite right and can prompt readers to put the book down—right when it’s getting to the good part!

Book design varies from genre to genre and audience to audience, and there are several factors you should consider when choosing a design template.

What’s Your Genre?

Spend some time considering your genre. MORE INFO COMING SOON.

What Design Elements Do You Need?

What Physical Requirements Do You Have?

Do you need your book to be a certain length? Do you know what sort of binding you’ll have? MORE COMING SOON.
