Although it was initially daunting, (how do you summarise your book?), I read other people’s blurbs in my category and I also did one other thing, that really helped me.

On my first attempt after writing all that I needed to say about the book, It was about 490 words. I thought cutting it down would be difficult. I quickly noticed what you said, that every word matters, and points to the next word. It should make the reader read right to the end. Great advice.

I reached about 250 words and for me that seemed to be comfortable spot.

Thanks for the help.
