Sources tell me that blurbing can be a dangerous business, but right now I'm feeling very excited about having my first blurb appear on a book. Simon Van Booy's novel Everything Beautiful Began After was a total pleasure to read, and I mean every word of this blurb.
The other blurbers have won prizes and written best-selling books, but I bet you that I'm the only one who took a screenshot and posted it on my website.
Simon is reading at BookCourt on Friday, July 8. You should go. I will be on the other side of the country, drowning my sorrow about missing it in guacamole.
With love, and in print,
Emma
