Summary

Book Brush combines author-specific ad and social templates, 3D book mockups and a Cover Creator that builds ebook, audiobook and paperback or hardcover wraps from your trim size, paper type and page count, with the spine width calculated for you. Covers are assembled from templates and stock images, so they can look similar to other authors' covers. The Cover Creator and mockup tools sit on paid annual plans; it also sells done-for-you design and social media services.
