Book Cover Design Brief
I need an impactful front and back cover design for my next non-fiction creative thinking book. Striking, modern, simple. Clean, with preference using black and red as dominant colours (but open to surprise).
Will be an e-book and printed book.

Nice to have
- Book contents is workbooky and workshopy in style (ie alot about getting stuff up on flipcharts) so some 'handwritten' Sharpie marker type like in some attached examples might be suitable.
- does it need a graphic element? up to you
Should not have
- Not too busy, not too fussy. Simple and strong. Boom!
- Don't use Question Mark in cliched way
