Premade Ebook Cover Shop is a boutique solo-designer cover service run by Marianne Nowicki, who spent over 20 years as an Art Buyer and Print Producer at New York and Boston ad agencies before launching the shop in 2013. Every cover is sold exclusively — once purchased, it is permanently removed from the catalog so no two authors will ever share the same design.
The active inventory is intentionally small, often just a handful of designs per genre at any given time. Marianne has designed covers for New York Times and USA Today bestselling authors and was selected as a prize partner by Page Turner Awards in 2022.
