What are book blurbs and why do so many authors fret over them? We talk about that in our Biz Buzz segment this week. But this all comes about after the shock news that Simon & Schuster is ditching their book blurb requirements. Peter read a great article from Literary Hub (linked down below) about this news and is why we're re-running this segment this week.
Plus, Peter lays out some of the upcoming segments for the show including CaZ's Tales and Threads, Colleen's Conversations with Colleen, and Peter's Book Review which are all coming up this month.
