Book Blurb Friday
A “blurb” is the story summary on the back of a book (usually 150 words or less) written to entice you to read the book. The goal of this meme is to:
Write a book jacket blurb (150 words or less) so enticing that potential readers would feel compelled to buy the book.
Every Thursday evening Lisa will post a photo that represents the cover of this week’s book, along with her 150 words-or-less blurb to match. You are invited to post the photo on your site along with your own 150 words-or-less blurb. A Mr. Linky widget will be available and a link from your site back to Writing in the Buff would also be nice as it will encourage your readers to visit the other Book Blurb participants via Mr. Linky.
Thursday 13
The Thursday 13 is a weekly meme with a simple theme: each Thursday you blog a list of 13 things. What kind of things? Any kind! Just come up with a list theme and run with it. One week you may list “13 things on my mind” and maybe the next week you’d list “my top 13 favorite movies”. Back in early 2007, Janet came up with the idea of going through the alphabet; “13 Things I Love that begin with the letter A”, etc. That gives you 26 weeks of ideas! Each new 13 will be posted at approximately 8PM EST every Wednesday evening.
Wordless Wednesday
The simplest meme of all time, just post a picture, any picture and you’re done.
