Starting Date: Friday, November 4, 2011
Open to all forum members, even after it starts!

This month's prompt:
NaBloPoMo - National Blog Posting Month (not affiliated with the real NaBloPoMo).

Write up a back cover blurb for a book you have written or would like to write. It should be short, sweet, yet give a sense of people and events without totally spoiling the ending. NaNoWriMo participation is not required, and the blurb may be for fiction or nonfiction as you see fit.

Instructions:
Simply post your blog's URL in this thread to join. Each post should be less than 500 words if possible. Read and comment on other participants' posts if you possibly can--they'll be doing the same for you!

I'll let you know in this thread when it's your turn.
Once your turn comes up, you have two days to complete your post. When you are finished, please add a link to your post on the thread. If you signed up but find yourself unable to participate or need to be moved around in the schedule, please PM me or post in the thread. If you fail to post on your blog and on the thread within two days, I'll bump you down to the end of the line on the third day; you'll get a second chance at the end of the month.

Please include a list of all participants' blogs in your blog post, and keep in mind we're not starting until the second Thursday of the month to give people time to sign up.

If you need someone to bump up, let me know. Mine is already written! Wrote it yesterday! :D
Given the horrific spectacle of last month, with bloggers disappearing or dropping like flies, I may just have to take you up on that.

Oh you mean midnight tonight. Gotta check my place on the list will be right back.
That would be 12:00am CDT (don't ask me why I wrote CMT instead of CDT). In Puerto Rico (assuming your location thingy is correct) it would be around 2pm this afternoon.

My hiatus is over, and since I have started work on my WIP as well as my blog, I think it is time once again to join in. These were fun.
Weclome back!

My post is up. It's the blurb from the book I'm currently trying to sell. How can it have a blurb if it's unsold, you ask? I've custom-printed a few individual copies as gifts for people I know, and the back cover looked awfully lonely.

Ralph Pines is next. It's too close to lunchtime to think of an appropriate pine tree pun, though.
