I recall sitting on the stairs and balling my eyes out! :-)Wendy Percivalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06902813313352050696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4575622231872419564.post-18137418063165841632014-07-06T17:09:22.948+01:002014-07-06T17:09:22.948+01:00A very topical post for me to be reading Wendy, th...A very topical post for me to be reading Wendy, thanks. I am at the same copy-editing stage as you and have also just turned my attention to the blurb. I absolutely hate blurb that tells you everything that's going to happen in the book. Even with my poor memory I'm not going to forget being told someone's going to die for example and that ruins the story for me. <br /><br />I have picked out a quote from my book to open with but am stuck at the moment on the next bit to write!! I did the same with my first one and I've been told it's intriguing which is what will get me to buy a book but you can't please everyone so I'm sure that there are others that will say it doesn't tell them enough. Good luck with writing yours Wendy - I shall look forward to reading it!!<br /><br />Also I haven't read Love Story but shall definitely add it to my list - I love a book that makes me cry (how weird is that!!)
