ABOUT THE STUDIO

Hi, I'm Becca.

Merakistorms is my one-woman studio in Ontario, Canada. I’m a romance and fantasy reader, and I’ll admit it... I judge books by their covers. I know how much a great cover pulls you in, so I design every site to make people stop, look closer and want to know more, whether it’s for your books or your business.

"Meraki" means putting your soul into your work. The storms are for the drama.

LET'S TALK

Tell me a little about your business, your books or your art and I'll reply with next steps and a few questions about your style.
