Tips for Writing the Perfect Book Cover Prompt

The key to a eye-caching AI-generated book cover lies in your text prompts. A well-crafted prompt ensures your design captures your book’s essence, attracting readers at first glance. We have 5 tips to help you to get an excellent book cover:

  • Be Descriptive, Yet Clear
    Tell AI what book cover you need, like “book cover design for an adventure novel.” Mentioning colors, moods, and details is also helpful: “A mysterious forest in twilight with glowing fireflies.” This ensures the AI captures your desired atmosphere.
  • Specify Artistic Style or Genre
    Include terms like “anime-styled,” “steampunk,” or “realistic portrait” to match your book’s vibe. For example: “A romantic cover with soft, glowing light in an anime style.”
  • Include the Focal Point
    If characters or objects are central to your cover, highlight them. For instance: “A lone astronaut standing on Mars, holding a flag under a red sky.”
  • Use Emotive Keywords
    Words like “vivid,” “whimsical,” or “dramatic” guide the AI to craft a design with personality.
  • Specify No Text
    By adding “no text” to the prompt or writing “text” in the negative prompt, you can ensure the aesthetics of the cover. Although the algorithm is constantly developing and the text accuracy rate of AI image generator has improved a lot, the occurrence of wrong text can not be eliminated temporarily, so indicating “no text” in the prompt can improve the generating efficiency.
