@nigelcameron I’ve written so many blurbs with Kasparov over the years, we’ve turned it into an art form. A few for friends (who can write great books!), but most come in from publishers in area expertise like Russia and AI. Turn down most.

@MarcQuill Yes! I want to be teased the most outlandish ways. Give me a reason to come back. Comics need to embrace some of the more medium specific tropes like Next Issue blurbs, narrators, thought bubbles etc.

kicking around the idea of a personal challenge: write a story, article, or little blurb on my Medium account at least once a month. might beef up my portfolio and also help my mental health by writing down thoughts for people to read or not read. what do you all think?

@LurzBlurbz it's been a really draining year. Don't get down on yourself, we are all feeling it. Try your best to make time to be creative. Sit down, write and see what happens. Go out and have some SAFE experiences. Even if it's walking with a mask on.

@aimeenez i def get it! i’m sure it’s exhausting to have to go thru requests and also turn them down. i’m mostly just baffled by the recent increased discussion around blurbs in general. like, did something happen?! has the pandemic increased and made the # of acceptable blurbs untenable?

As a coda to my recent threads about the problem of childhood, I might as well announce that the novel I've been working on for the last few years is an attempt to deal with these issues in literary form. Here's an extremely minimal blurb, with a nod to LC, Dan Simmons, @hannu. https://t.co/nH8uZvFquq

@tylerjschoon I haven’t watched him yet, not that far down. I’ve heard some good things and the blurb was complementary. I think some depth 3-4 outside rushers this draft is going to be needed because of the perceived scheme switch and Ingram not coming back.

@EHollandAuthor If you go to full publication and there is an issue, you can always change it then. That's one of the beauties of print-on-demand. Plus you can update if you happen to get any decent reviews with a blurb on the back.
Author copies take forever to arrive, much slower than Proofs.

It's a really bad look when a dude writes an investing book with blurbs pointing at his website, then lets that website lapse - but somehow has time to write about how people with guns should make everyone use fiat currency.
