The NEW Improved Blurb for ANYONE? by Angela Scott (Coming this December)

EDITOR REVISED AND IMPROVED:

The end of the world? That’s the stuff of Hollywood blockbusters and deep philosophical exercises in school. No need to sweat it. So when sixteen-year-old Tess’s doomsday-dad builds a bomb shelter in their suburban backyard, everyone thinks he’s gone crazy....

...Until fire rains down from the sky, sinking whole cities into colossal-sized craters and setting much of the world ablaze.

Tess’s dad gives her a few short minutes to gather her emergency bag and her freaked-out kitten, then leads her outside and into the underground shelter. Terrified, the last thing she expects is for him to leave her there all alone, but he has no choice—he must find her missing brother.

Before leaving, he makes Tess promise to keep the hatch door shut, not to open it for anyone but him, and to stay put until he returns.

But he forgot to tell her one thing: What is she supposed to do if he never comes back?

I used to HATE writing blurbs - thought they were so damn difficult. Now I've done so many of them that it's actually become second nature. I guess it's true what they say about 10,000 hours.... :)
