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.
(Join
in 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!)
Never Too Old
Izzy knew her 90th birthday was coming up but she
hoped that she could keep it low key. By not bringing attention to it, she
hoped to have a quiet evening after knitting group and going home to listen to
her favorite music and read a good book. Her knitting group had other ideas. She
knew they were planning things behind her back. When Izzy showed up for the
weekly get together, she knew she was in trouble when someone put a Mexican
sombrero on her head! The group didn’t just have activities planned for this
night but had crazy things planned all year long! Oh, my goodness! Did she have
the stamina for all this? They say you are never too old. Read on to find out
what zany adventures were in store for Izzy. (136 words)

Pat--I love the idea of an all-year birthday celebration. At 90, Izzy deserves it. Thanks for writing a blurb.
That's great! The expression on her face is perfect for a not-really-surprise party!
