Historical fiction ads that stay in period.

Everything below was built for The Kept Light, a twentieth-century historical novel from one of our own pen names — generated from the actual manuscript and cover by the same pipeline a paying author gets. No stock, no mockups.

On-book ad images

Period-true, down to the light.

The job: promise the era honestly. Historical readers bounce hard off anachronism — so the wardrobe, light and setting in these stills are read from the manuscript itself, and the real cover stays the hero of every frame.

The four on-book stills this campaign shipped — the real cover and cast, staged in the book's own era.
Video

An old story in a new format.

The job: give a literary, slower-burn book a way into short video without cheapening it. The character chat puts the novel's voices into the format BookTok saves and shares most.

Character chat for The Kept Light — a message thread between the leads, in voices drawn from the manuscript.
Amazon A+ content

A listing that reads like a dust jacket.

The job: make the Amazon page feel like the book's world before the sample is opened. Modules are generated at Amazon's exact sizes — these are two of the real header-banner options this campaign shipped.

Two real header-banner options (970×600) — several options per slot, so the author picks the frame that fits.

Fair questions

Asked often.

Is this a real historical fiction campaign?

Yes — The Kept Light is a twentieth-century historical novel from one of our own pen names, and every asset here is an unedited output from its Book Ad Pack campaign. We show our own books because we never publish client work without permission.

How do you keep the images in period?

The pipeline reads the manuscript before it designs anything — era, setting, wardrobe and light come from the book's own pages, and the ads are checked against the book rather than against a generic "vintage" look.

My book is set in a different era — does this work?

Yes. The twentieth-century setting came from this book; yours sets the era. WWII, Regency, medieval, Gilded Age — the same process applies: the manuscript decides the period, not a template.

How do I get this for my novel?

Start at the intake page — upload your manuscript or paste your Amazon link, and we'll read the book and show you what we'd build before you commit to anything.
