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.
Love the cartoon feeling!
I love the cover of this book. I bought it on Amazon and was not disappointed – it is a great book and I appreciated her sense of humor and honesty. I recommend it and love the cover!
Oooh, I like this one. Definitely would pick it up on Amazon if I saw the cover in a search. Travel reading is a guilty pleasure!
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.
Another great cover. Jane did mine and it’s fantastic.
Love this cover, the artwork and title grabbed my attention immediately!!!
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!
Love this cover, can’t wait to read the book! The illustration and title definitely grabbed my attention!
Clever graphics: passport, travel, sex, very compelling.
Fantastic idea! Fantastic cover meets great writing! Perfect package
Excellent read, I enjoyed it from beginning to end. The cover illustration is fantastic.
I loved the anticipation that I felt looking at the cover, to turn the pages to get to the story and I was not disappointed, loved it!
the cover matches the contents of a lady going wacko….running/traveling in those high heels…..yes, cover fits the content 🙂
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?
Love the multi-tasking on the go gal hurrying to her next adventure!
I like the design of this book cover.
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!
