In Back-of-the-Book Blurb #
14 from Sioux's Page, Sioux offers this challenge.
She
posts a picture and you need to imagine it as a graphic for a book. You choose
the genre and book title, and then write a blurb that might appear on the back
of the book.
·
The blurb should be 150
words or less (not including the title).
·
The genre is wide-open.
·
Each blogger should
include their blurb on their own blog, and link back to this post.
·
Have fun with it. Go to
the other posts and comment on the other blurbs.
·
You can do fancy techy
things with the photo.

if you dare...! It sounds like fun! I think this would be a lot of fun to do
with students especially since they would be expected to write 150 words or
less!)
Starting Over
He took
them to the beach so they could go fishing one last time. This was probably
going to be the last fun time together that they’d remember. Tom didn’t know
how he was going to tell them. These were his little girls and he was going to
break their hearts. Their lives were going to change once he told them. They
wouldn’t understand why their mother wasn’t with them. If only he could think
of a good lie that they would believe but he couldn’t. He never lied to them
before and he wouldn’t start now. All he had was the note Megan left them on
the end table. She didn’t even stay to say good bye in person and ended her
life tragically. So, they were going to start over. They were going to move
across the country so they all could have a fresh start. (150 words)
