What's a Blurb and How to Write One

Hello!In this episode we discuss blurbs: what they are, why you need one, and how to write one for your book! Here are some of the authors, artists, and other things we brought up during the episode. Just a disclaimer - please do not take our word as fact. The publishing industry is always changing, and often we are talking about things we are remembering from a while ago or have heard from others. While the agent deep dive is always fact checked, we do not prep for these episodes or look up other information beforehand. It’s always important to do your own research! If we realize after the fact that we have gotten anything wrong, we will do our best to correct it in the show notes.Barbara Poelle, the agent from our agency deep dive:https://www.wordonelit.com/agentsAnother Enchanted April:https://a.co/d/7GyxVhy The Cruel Prince:https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-cruel-prince-holly-black/eba3c0a1370a52bd?ean=9780316310314&next=tAssistant to the Villain:https://bookshop.org/p/books/assistant-to-the-villain-hannah-nicole-maehrer/9f2e622cc2359404?ean=9781649375803&next=tPlain Jane and the Mermaid:https://bookshop.org/p/books/plain-jane-and-the-mermaid-vera-brosgol/d0f18bf27c7a14ab?ean=9781250314857&next=t The Once and Future Witches:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49504061-the-once-and-future-witchesThe Scorpio Races:https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-scorpio-races-maggie-stiefvater/52fd66b2d04c5c63?ean=9780545224918&next=tBeyond the bright sea:https://bookshop.org/p/books/beyond-the-bright-sea-lauren-wolk/4a0c4b795b184c50?ean=9781101994870&next=tThis Girl’s a Killer:https://bookshop.org/p/books/this-girl-s-a-killer-emma-c-wells/4fbdc76b240222d2?ean=9781464218620&next=tThe Hunger Games:https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-hunger-games-hunger-games-book-one-suzanne-collins/2af1c5e0ab209abc?ean=9780439023528&next=t
