I hate writing the bit that goes on the back cover of a paperback. I can never get it done quite right. I'm always afraid I'm giving away what other people would consider spoilers, so I end up not saying enough.
Dorothy Grant recently wrote a piece over at a blog I'm fairly fond of reading when I've got the processing capacity to spare (as I often don't) that gets into the nitty-gritty of writing and publishing fiction. The piece she wrote was about how to write what goes on the back cover. And she graciously helped those of us who have trouble with such.
Including me.
I'll be fiddling with it a little, but the hard part is done.
Now to just finish up the last two edits...

Dot has been a godsend to me. She has a great eye for blurbs and for telling you where in particular your book needs work.
