Back Blurb Bother...

Ancient Writerly Proverb:

It is easier to write a novel than it is to compose a halfway decent back cover blurb.

If you don't believe me and think I'm making a great fuss over nothing, I have a challenge for you:

Think of your favourite novel.

Got it?

Okay.

Without cheating (ie: going to have a crafty look at the back cover of your chosen book!), write a blurb of 150 words or so that encapsulates the main plot line but without revealing anything vital. Oh, and your blurb has to be tempting enough to lure a potential reader into opening the book.

Give it a go and see how you get on.

Good luck!
