Check out our second prize winner!

As you all know, the second prize winner of the Rosetta Literary Contest was Mr. Andrew Welsh. He is the author of many titles such as:


White Sands, Green Trees


Teaching Overseas - A Short Guide


and Any Means to an End


Any means to an End is the prequel to Protective Craft, the book we proofread and designed the cover for.

We enjoyed deeply working with Mr. Welsh throughout the whole process and were very proud of our final product! His writing was delightful to proofread and we believe we managed to maintain the continuity with the series in the book cover we designed for him.

What do you think about our cover?


If you would like to find out more about his work check out: http://anymeanstoanend.blogspot.com/

and you can also check out his Facebook page to find out more about himself: https://www.facebook.com/AnyMeansToAnEnd

All his books can be found in both Pinterest and Amazon.

This is the cover we designed for her:
