Book Jacket Blurb Format
« on: March 21, 2012, 04:33:16 AM »
I remember seeing the Jim Butcher format for book jacket blurbs on the web a while back, and loved it.  I'm looking to write a blurb for an upcoming adventure, though, and naturally I can't find it now.  Does anyone know where I might find the darned thing?  It was in the form of a madlibs-like paragraph.  Something like, "... When <villain> comes to town, will <hero> be quick enough to stop him?  Or will <nasty consequence> come to pass? ..." 

Can somebody help me out?

Your Story, page 61. It's where it's talking about writing the backstories for your story aspects.

Oh, awesome!  I didn't think to scour YS.  I'll check it out when I get home.  Thanks!
