Testimonials

“Working with BookSmith Design was a fun, exciting, collaborative process, which is this writer’s dream. Claire listens to my input on the cover design so that it reflects the theme and tone of the book. And, without fail, she over-delivers with designs that are beyond my wildest dreams.
Readers have left a myriad of reviews that they initially chose one of the books based on its cover. There’s no other designer I’d use for any of my books but Claire of BookSmith.”

— Mary Billiter, #1 Bestselling Author - Amazon, winner of the 2018 Top Female Author by The Author Show and 2019 RONE Mystery finalist.

Working with Claire has been an absolute dream. She’s taken my complete lack of vision and turned it into covers I adore, and was unfailingly helpful and patient no matter what. Her design skills are matched only by her professionalism, and I would work with her again a thousand times over.

— Louisa Masters, #1 Bestselling Gay Romance author on Amazon
