Deconstructing Back Cover Copy

We've been talking a lot about cover blurbs at recent meetings. It's a topical subject for us as we move into the last stage of finalising the layout for Tick Tock , our anthology. Last week I shared an online course on writing a blurb. Here's an article that offers a different approach, by deconstructing the blurbs from two big selling novels and analysing the elements that go into creating a compelling and enticing blurb. http://www.betternovelproject.com/blog/back-cover-copy/ I've also shared the link to the website where I found the article. Some of you may also find this to be a useful resource. http://sumome.com/ Happy writing! Mjke
