State-Sponsored Sex and Other Tales of International Misadventure by Claire Noble

State-Sponsored Sex and Other Tales of International Misadventure

Cover Designer: Jane Dixon-Smith

Comments about cover design
My memoir takes place during a decade living in China and Hong Kong. I wanted the cover to have an international feel to it and I wanted it to be fun as the memoir is about my quest to find the humor in what ever predicament I found myself in. I selected the vector image and asked Jane to make some minor modifications such as changing the character’s hair to red like mine. I then asked her to make the cover look like passport stamps. I think she did a great job.

    Catchy title and colorful cover to match. Takes what I consider a dry subject and makes it look as though you’ll have an enjoyable time reading.

    Jane is a wonderful, very talented cover and book designer. She designed by covers and I’m happy for my books to be judged by them.

    This was a very funny and poignant book, from beginning to end. The cover is so action packed and frantic, you knew the insides of the book would be as well! Did not disappoint!

    This cover is so much fun. Anyone who travels frequently has to relate to it. the exasperated look on her face, the weight of the luggage and then the stamp; don’t we all love passport stamps?

    Who wouldn’t want to pick up this book and read it! State Sponsored Sex…and then you do read it and find it’s drop down on the floor funny (that’s funnier than ROFL funny BTW!). But it was the cover that got me to pick it up for sure!
