EPISODE SHOW NOTES
Every book needs a blurb or how else are readers going to know what it's about? The blurb helps a reader decide to open the book to its first page and possibly buy it. This week, we're talking about book blurbs and how to write one.
In this episode, we cover:
- Blurb vs. synopsis
- What to include in your blurb
- What to possibly avoid in the blurb
- Ari reads an example blurb
