We’re talking Branding. Before we launch into this week’s episode, let’s have a reminder.

1st ~ We have nanoseconds to capture a reader’s interest. We can capture that reader with three glances. The 1st glance is a cover that blazes with story. Our cover has to represent our story with 3 little words focusing on 1] the protagonist, 2] the subniche of our story, and 3] on setting.

2nd ~ We select images that tweak what our competition is doing. Those 3 little words, ever so important, guide us, then we narrow in to capture the mood or tone of our story.

3rd ~ Glance III, which we start this episode, seals our contract with readers through Clever Titles and Cover Copy.

Let’s look at Clever Titles.
