Writing Book Blurbs That Sell

In this episode, bestselling authors Kimberly Todd, KC Luck, and Jamey Moody break down the art (and the agony) of writing a book blurb that actually sells. From crafting punchy taglines to balancing intrigue and clarity, the hosts share their personal approaches to creating blurbs that hook readers and communicate the heart of a story in just a few carefully chosen lines.

Jamey outlines her preferred structure for blurbs, including a bold first line, clear character intros, and a final punch with tropes and a call to action. KC talks about the importance of questions in blurbs and writing in present tense to keep things dynamic. They all agree that blurbs should entice, not summarize, and should never include typos or plot spoilers.

Packed with practical advice, personal stories, and a few hilarious tangents, this episode is a must-listen for indie authors looking to sharpen their blurbs.
