Ch. 67 | 5 Tips on Writing Great Book Blurb Descriptions

from The Word Weaver Podcast · host Louise Johnson

On today’s chapter of the #WordWeaverPodcast I share my top five tips on how to write a great book blurb. Your title and cover can grab a potential reader’s attention, but it’s your book description that does most of the heavy lifting in enticing a reader to buy your book. Think of your book description as a movie trailer in written form. It’s not a play-by-play summary, but in a few compelling paragraphs you should be able to accurately describe your novel, set up the main conflict and give the reader a reason to care about your protagonist without giving too much away. “Your book is a story, but your book description is an ad.” The Word Weaver Podcast is available on all podcast platforms and now on YouTube.Word Weaver Podcast LinksInstagram: @wordweaverpodcastWebsite: louiseclairejohnson.com/podcast#wordweaverpodcastNEW episodes weekly on Word Weaver Wednesdays.
