Rene Voland, Author of Grace Under Siege, Solomon's Books Press

Recommended by Clair Delaney (author of the 'Coral' series of books), she said, don't bother going anywhere else, so I didn't! With a vague idea of what I wanted for a cover design, JD&J brought it to life. Easy to work with I had my perfect design first time round, unaltered. Brilliant!

Gillian Edwards, Author of 'An Ordinary Woman'

Customer service is impeccable. After searching online for days, I came across JD&J Design and let me tell you, I am so lucky that I did. They offer the most "bang for the buck" and you get what you pay for and more. Never once did they try to "up-sell" me to a better package, in fact, they talked me DOWN from the package I wanted to make sure I was getting the best possible option for my how I envisioned my design.

JD&J worked with me every step of the way, and were extremely prompt in their response time to emails (like insanely fast!). As far as the outcome of the design for my manuscript goes, IT IS SPECTACULAR. It's more than I ever could have dreamed it would be, and they helped take the vision I had and turn it into something that worked brilliantly. Everyone I speak to about my book, the first thing they say is "your cover is amazing!" and that is so invigorating as an Author. If you're looking for %100 Satisfaction with no hassle, JD&J Design is the way to go.

I will certainly be using them in the future for all my cover design needs. I'm not usually the reviewing type, but this business has earned it. I cannot thank them enough.

-Sarah Connor, Author of 'The Fire He Started'

I wouldn't go anywhere else for a cover design. JD & J have been with me for the long-haul.

David is talented, flexible, patient, and attentive to detail. He understands these covers are my 'babies' and he treats me and them like a doctor might treat an expectant father. And did I say he was flexible and patient? He's the best! Change orders? No problem. Fixes to things that are totally my fault? His pleasure. And the multiple marketing version are well designed bonuses. Did I say JD&J are the best? A well deserved five stars ***** Thanks guys!

Mark Bello - Author of the Zachary Black Book Series

Preparing book covers requires skill and attention to detail and, sometimes, a bit of tweaking. Having worked with JD&J on three covers - involving paperbacks, eBooks, and conversions - I can attest that you are in very capable hands. Throughout, I have been very impressed by the planning, structure, execution, and timeliness of JD&J's services. You also get good value for money. When preparing something so close to a writer's heart as a book cover, this is not a time to be penny-wise, pound-foolish. Very highly recommended.

-Abdiel LeRoy, Author of Elijah, Verses, Versus Empire & Well Versed.

On a scale of 0 to 10, I would give JD&J Design an "11." First, their work product is exceptional. I was delighted with the cover designed by JD&J and I have received many positive comments about the cover. Second, Dave is incredibly responsive, courteous and professional. I emailed him on multiple occasions in the evening and on weekends, and he always responded immediately. Third, JD&J is very reasonably priced.

I consider myself very fortunate to have found JD&J. If I publish another book, I will definitely use them to design my cover. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Peter Boutin - Author of Grand Ascent

The team did not disappoint. In the physical sphere of things trust is sometimes hard to establish. Virtual trust is even harder.

​But with JD&J, you can definitely trust them to deliver cover designs that will wow you.

One of the wow factors for me, was their delivery time. They said 7 days and delivered before 7 days. I am impressed with their attention to detail and the professional way they communicated. Dave was polite, engaging and patient. I assessed their work and meticulously read through all the reviews I found online. The reviews did not lie! And that's great; not only were the reviews comforting, but they also matched the quality designs I got and the service I received.

-Asheida Charles, Author of 'The Cookie Jar'

I am extremely pleased with the cover design and array of marketing images I received from the JD&J team. In addition to their design expertise, I am grateful for their clear and friendly communication, diligently implementing the fine-tuning adjustments I requested, and for being such a talented, cooperative and trustworthy partner on my publishing journey. I could not recommend them enough!!"

Karl R. Luther, Author of 'Illuminating The Narrow Gate'

Over the course of several months, I looked for a reputable, reliable expert to help deliver my vision for cover art for a book. When I came across JD&J, I felt like I had at last found a team that I could rely on to create what I needed. I was right!
In fact, I quickly realized they would be ideally suited to work with me on several additional cover art requirements I had.

They were professional, patient and creative... being very responsive to my needs and acting as a true partner. And, they also had a variety of packages to suit the different needs I had for each project.

I'd hire Dave and his team at JD&J again without hesitation ... and I will happily and confidently tell others to consider them for any cover art needs they have.

Thanks Dave/JD&J Team!

-Karen Denega, Author of Seven separate books (all with covers from JD&J)

Dave and the team at JD&J Design, were amazing. Their extensive questionnaire at the start of the process helped me narrow down what I wanted and needed for my first cover in my cozy mystery series. I am stickler for detail, and they were understanding and patient with this rookie writer. My cover turned out better than I ever imagined.

​They also did my formatting for the eBook, paperback, and hardcover. The results were stunning. I have more books planned for this series and have no doubt I will be using JD and J Design for future endeavors. Writers have enough to worry about to make the best product they can. Let Dave and his team create a magnificent cover for you and take care of the formatting. You will be thrilled. I highly recommend their services."

-Michelle Pointis Burns, Author of 'Say Cheese and Murder'

Exceedingly professional, unbelievably prompt and superbly patient! This is how I can describe Dave and his amazing crew from JD&J, who wonderfully designed the cover of "On Loving" for me. This is my first novel and since self- publishing world is so new to me, I’ve been learning different things in every step of the way. The rewarding experience I’ve had with this great team helped me feel more comfortable moving forward with other aspects of my new venture. I would certainly recommend working with these brilliant people and adding their unique designs to your treasured literary works. I love the cover design for "On Loving" and would like to wish JD&J staff all success in their future endeavors!"

Lili Naghdi, Author of On Loving

I could not be more pleased with Dave and JD&J Design for my book cover. Dave was extremely polite and he listened to what I was trying to accomplish with my book cover design. Every single time he told me something was going to be done it WAS done on that date. I wish more people in the business world showed professionalism like JD&J! The design for my book cover exceeded all expectations I had, Dave hit a grand slam! I highly recommend using their services! Very trustworthy!

Stan Czubernat, Author of 'The Inconvenient Truth about the World's First Waterproof Watch'

I had an idea of what I wanted on the cover of my debut novel. But, when I was presented with the proofs, I was utterly blown away by how good of a job they did. They are creative geniuses. Thank you!

They are straightforward and quick to respond to any updates or tweaks you may need to do with your proofs. I would highly recommend JD&J Design.

Ken C. Kennedy - Author of 'ODOX'

Really pleased with the service and prompt communication. the company did a fantastic job and I’m not the easiest person to please. I would highly recommend them & will definitely be using them again.

Samantha Hodnett, Author of 'Push'

I am a VERY picky person. I consider myself overly critical when I am paying. JD&J made me feel like I was their only client. They always responded quickly, offered advice and were extremely helpful. I know they went outside of their scope of responsibility to make things perfect for me. They created a book cover and formatted my book. I had a previous “Formatter” who delayed my book and refused to offer true formatting services after I paid. JD&J was VERY patient with me. They gave me a questionnaire in the beginning of the process to gain insight on my project, offered guidance throughout my project and were very attentive to my needs. I wasted so much time before them. Had I known about them sooner, my book would’ve been published years ago! They are THE BEST!

Shea Johnson - Author of 'Life After Closing'

Excellent communication and professionalism. The three draft versions of my cover were delivered on time as specified and all very impressive. The hardest part was deciding on which cover would be the best and I needed the input from a selection of friends and family to help with my decision. After deciding and asking for a few minor alterations, the completed cover was ready extremely fast. I was impressed with the wide variety of marketing banners and images and I hope to use many of them. Overall, I'm extremely happy with my new cover and envisage it will increase the sales of my book, which has already been available for a number of years. I would definitely recommend this service and will certainly be using it again in the future. 

James Driver, Author of ‘ HiiT - High Intensity Interval Training Explained 

David and his staff did a brilliant job. We tried multiple variations on three central themes and David provided a number of samples and variations. He was was very patient and helpful throughout. If I had one word to describe the experience it would be "professional". The final product is beautiful. I could not be more pleased. Thanks, guys! "

Mark Bello, Author of Betrayal In Blue

JD&J Book Cover Design far exceeded my expectations. Their work far surpasses in quality all my previous covers from publishers. As a bonus, their services are competitively priced. I intend to give them my next book to do.

Mark All, author of 'Death Metal' www.markallauthor.com

Working with JD & J Designs has been a great experience from the moment I sent the initial inquiry for book cover designs. The process was very professional, they responded to my emails faster than I anticipated, and delivered exactly what I asked for. Prior to finding JD & J Designs, I had submitted a request to another design company out of Atlanta, GA. The owner responded after a couple of days of my initial communication, asked for a summary of my book project, and I never heard from him again. JD & J Designs contacted me less than 24 hours of my initial communication and remained consistent throughout the process in terms of response time.

I will definitely call on this company in the future and I am so thankful that the book cover turned out to be everything I wanted. Thanks for all the hard work and for helping me to bring my book project to life. I couldn't have done it without you! You'll be hearing from me again soon!

Terri Seymore-Green, Author of 'I love you more than love'

Dave and his staff are phenomenal. From concept to final design was above and beyond all expectations! Concept, Design, Layout, Format and the willingness to meet the needs to get a book published with a newbie and indie--all I can say is I highly recommend his services.

Bill Naugle, Author of 'New Home Support'

Let me start by saying that I cannot overstate the professionalism, quality, and promptness in the service I received. This was my first book to seek a professionally designed cover for and I am so glad I did. I look forward to a long relationship with JD&J and believe the work they delivered is among the best they have ever done for a client. I look forward to more of the same.

Jay Sandlin, Author of 'Outbreak Mutiny'

JD&J created a book cover design which I completely love, they took the information I gave them and came up with a design which has captured its essence completely. I was also very impressed with their professional attitude and customer service, nothing seemed too much and they took care of everything I asked of them. Would recommend to every author.

S.G. Hinds, Author of 'Lost'

I am really happy I chose JD&J to design my book cover - I had very specific ideas about what I wanted to see and Dave patiently and promptly made changes until I was completely happy with the cover design. I love the fact that they offer social media banners and digital posters as part of a package along with unlimited revisions - and at a cost that was less than other companies charged for just the cover. As a first time author, I was really glad to have affordable, professional help to get my book ready to publish. Thank you!!!

Ariel DeSilvis, Author of 'The Marshmallow'

My book cover design exceeded my expectations and the final product was amazing, their professional service and attention to detail was second to none and I will definitely use JD&J for my next book.

Bradley Hanson, Author of 'March'

Dave has been excellent to work with and the cover designs are top quality. Have gotten positive feedback for the covers from other people as well. Also, the various banners for social media sites is the icing on the cake; really helps the marketing. Keep up the great work.

​Steven Peters, Author of 'Green Street'

Brilliant service matched with an excellent book cover that I am really proud of, I was impressed with their knowledge and the use of a questionnaire to get details of my book that I hadn’t thought of. An overall great experience and final cover.

R.G. Buyers, Author of 'The Last Princess'

JD&J asked the right questions up front, and then they followed through by creating an incredible, striking cover from my vague original idea. They listened to every suggestion and tweaked each component to my liking. No other company I researched provided anywhere near the detailed service I received from JD&J. The unlimited revisions pledge was what attracted me in the beginning, but I quickly learned this artist didn't need many attempts to get it just right. I loved all the choices I was given, and I was astounded by the end result. My cover stands out as epic and iconic against the masses, and that is the ultimate prize!

Forrest Dartt, Author of 'Nadia Rising'

I was very happy with the results. Dave was very accommodating of my request for changes as we worked through the design.

Roy Mark, Author of 'Live By Chance, Love by Choice, Kill By Profession'

Excellent work. Very pleased with the cover design and customer service.

Anne Martinez, Author of 'Saved by the Dog'

Very pleased. Whole process was effortless and book cover came out beautifully. I love it and will definitely use them again in the future for my next book!

Anne Sayers - Author of Money Magically

Very happy with the book cover design created for me by JD&J, I found the whole process to very smooth and the level of service very high, I have recommended them to other authors and will certainly be back for my next book cover.

James Linehan, Author of ‘Moorelands’
