Logo Design Brief

Brand Pen name is "Christopher Gordon"
Tagline is "Where History Comes Alive"
domain name is "ChristopherGordonAuthor.com"
The genre I write is Historical Fiction, so logo and tag needs to reflect that genre.
My first series is titled "Sparks of Liberty" with at least three other historical fiction series in the works.
I am leaning toward member subscriptions on my website with a library of content available only to subscribers labeled simply as the"Historical Fiction Library" with content for both readers and other writers.
I'm not a designer, however AI had the following suggestions:
Classic Historical
Fonts
Name: Garamond or Baskerville in uppercase or small caps for a timeless bookish feel.
​Tagline: Same font in italics, smaller size, with wider letter spacing for grace and readability.
​Layout
Centered:
Line 1: CHRISTOPHER GORDON
Line 2 (smaller): Where History Comes Alive
A thin horizontal line or small ornament between name and tagline for a refined touch.
​Colors
Deep burgundy or sepia for the name; dark charcoal or warm ivory background for a historical feel.
​
Modern Heritage
Fonts
Name: Playfair Display or Cormorant Garamond for a high-contrast, elegant title.
​Tagline: Light sans serif like Lato or Raleway for clean contrast and easy reading.
​Layout
Horizontal banner for your website:

CHRISTOPHER GORDON | Where History Comes Alive
This works beautifully in your site header and on social media graphics.
​Colors
Rich navy or deep ink blue for the name; muted gold or warm gray for the tagline.
​

Signature & Seal
Fonts
Name: Script or signature-style font (used sparingly) to feel like a handwritten author signature.
​Tagline: Classic serif like Caslon or Garamond, all caps or small caps, for grounding.
​Layout
Centered: Signature-style Christopher Gordon with the tagline in a neat line below.
Optional circular “stamp” variation with CG in the center and the tagline around the edge for your favicon or watermark.
​Colors
Dark ink black for signature; soft parchment or ivory background to evoke old manuscripts.
​
This is my first logo design, so if you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks in advance for your submisssion.
