Today we are going to be looking at the art of writing blurbs and the different methods that I have learned and seen some other authors use over the years. This episode was voted for on social media after I asked if it would be a desired tidbit of information following a slew of posts expressing frustrations over blurb writing. Since anything that has to do with creating or designing anything has very few hard and fast rules, I don't want anyone to start this episode thinking they will come away an expert blurb writing. The hope here is that the information in this episode will bring some new information, methods, ways of looking at blurb writing, or styles that will make writing your next blurb easier and more enjoyable.Credits:Hosted by: Anastasia NightingaleCover Art: The Artsy ReaderBlog and Podcast Information:The Bookish Creation Podcast can be found at its home on Bookish Creation.

I am so excited and honored to have Evangeline join us on the podcast and listen to her read these fantastic excerpts from the story. We also get a wonderful interview at the end to wrap things up. Everything was done remotely, so everyone stayed safe. ;) This episode will always be such a treasure to me, and I hope you all enjoy it as well.Credits:Hosted by: AM NightingaleGuest Author: Evangeline AndersonCover Art: The Artsy ReaderExcerpts featured in episode written and read by Evangeline AndersonBlog and Podcast Information:The Bookish Creation Podcast can be found at its home at Bookish Creation.The post for this episode can be found on it's special post.
