What is a blurb?
A blurb is what you find on the back cover of a print book, or on the individual ebook’s page on the Samhain website. It’s a short, one- or two-paragraph description of the story, giving the genre and just enough information to “hook” the reader (or in this case, the editor) into wanting to read more. It’s not an excerpt, and it’s not a full plot summary or a synopsis.
