Book Cover Design Brief

The Twelve Steps for Smartphone Addiction was published in March 2019 and is available on Amazon and other platforms now. However, I am not happy with the cover. It's a good design in some ways - I thought it would stand out and be easily recognizable. But I don't really like the color scheme and feel that a self-help book should probably use some lighter colors and that the red is too strident. The color scheme carries over into other marketing materials like the website, social media, etc. and I don't like the red and black scheme for these purposes.

It's not essential that the cover contain an endorsement like the current one but it could. Here are some endorsements:

“A must-read for anyone who is addicted to or thinks they may have a problem with digital technology. This eloquent work will also be useful to academics and clinicians exploring potential solutions. The author recognizes the similarities between smartphone addiction and other addictions, and logically applies one of the most effective known solutions for addiction - The Twelve Steps.”
-- Earl Hightower: Noted Interventionist, Keynote Speaker and Addiction Visionary

“If you suffer from digital addiction, I strongly encourage you to use this book as your road map to get you back to the real world.”
-- Michael Stelzner, Founder of Social Media Examiner.

The back cover would have the new design / color scheme, but can have similar text, bio, author image, etc. Or we could include the endorsements there and shorten the other text.

As for the cover it could be stylized, or an image, a partial image, or whatever. I am open to suggestions. Think about what would be inviting for a person searching for help with moderating their smartphone use.

Let's add a subtitle as well "A Spiritual Path to Responsible Smartphone Use"
