Title: The Journal That Changed Everything
Author: Dave Denness
ISBN: 978-1-7642050-2-3
Concept (images are for examples only)
The cover should visually represent the protagonist’s transformation from corporate captivity in Sydney to freedom and reflection in Chiang Mai. The design should feel aspirational, modern, and professional, appealing to readers of personal development, lifestyle design, and narrative nonfiction.
Front Cover Visual Direction
• Left Scene (Sydney):
• A female figure, circa 40years old, in business attire leaving a high‑rise office building at dusk.
• She carries a large office travel bag or briefcase bag.
• The Sydney skyline should be visible in the background, with evening light (purples, oranges, city lights).
• Mood: heavy, corporate, restrained.
• Right Scene (Chiang Mai):
• The same woman, now relaxed, sitting at an outdoor café table in the sunshine.
• She has a coffee in hand, with her journal open on the table.
• Background hints of Chiang Mai: golden temple spire, tropical greenery, warm sunlight.
• Mood: light, free, expansive.
• Design Style:
• A split‑scene composition (left = Sydney evening, right = Chiang Mai morning).
• Title across the centre in bold, modern typography.
• Author name at the bottom.
Back Cover
• Blurb (to include in full):
What if the life you’re living isn’t yours at all?
You followed the rules, climbed the ladder, and earned the perks. But something still feels off. The Sunday dread. The quiet discontent. The whisper that says: This can’t be it.
The Journal That Changed Everything is a raw, reflective journey through corporate captivity, awakening, and the first steps toward freedom. Through the eyes of Sarah, a high-performing professional caught in the illusion of security, this book explores what happens when you finally question everything you were told about success, stability, and self-worth.
Blending narrative storytelling with coaching prompts, global lifestyle insights, and real-world case studies, this book offers more than inspiration. It’s a blueprint for change. Whether you’re stuck in the “one more year” loop or quietly dreaming of a different life, this is your invitation to reclaim your time, energy, and direction.
