BACK COVER BLURBS
I’m studying “back cover blurbs” and short one line synopses. The goal of this research started out egocentric really. I needed to know all I could about good summaries for back covers, because I want an outstanding back cover blurb for my work in progress.
As I thumbed through great synopses written by both published and unpublished writers, I realized I knew some pretty awesome writers. Thus the idea for this series was born. Why not share these great writers with everyone? Why not dive into conversations with the great writers I know and soak in the knowledge!

I'm so excited to spotlight Kat Heckenbach. I met Kat Heckenbach through another ACFW member. A kindred spirit, Kat and I, both in Jesus Christ and in Fantasy/Science Fiction.
Kat Heckenbach is a freelance writer, homeschool mom, and magna cum laude graduate of the University of Tampa (Biology). Her short fiction ranges from light-hearted fantasy to dark and disturbing. You can enter her world and learn about her novels and other writing at www.findingangel.com and www.kat-findingangel.blogspot.com.
The recent Kat Heckenbach good news is that Christian Fiction Online Magazine published her piece EYES ON THE HILLTOP
The BLOG DAYS OF SUMMER, however, is spotlighting her premier novel FINDING ANGEL.
Below is a little teaser for FINDING ANGEL by KAT HECKENBACH.
"If magic were real—and on Toch Island it is—it would have nothing to do with (as Severus Snape says) “foolish wand-waving and silly incantations,” and everything to do with stretching the boundaries of physical laws.
But would your abilities be genetically determined?
Or…are they part of your soul?"
Intrigued? Come back tomorrow and read the "back cover blurb" for FINDING ANGEL by KAT HECKENBACH.

BLOG DAYS OF SUMMER: BACK COVER BLURBS
Part two from yesterday. HERE IS WHAT WE'VE BEEN WAITING for!
SUMMARY FOR:
Light of Truth by Lynn Rush
Demons, known as Azazels, stalk a sleepy city attacking the innocent. No one suspects the dark secrets behind the mysterious deaths.
There is one who can stop them – the Protector – but lost to a world of drugs and alcohol after her father’s untimely death, eighteen-year-old Shelby Daniels is oblivious to her calling and her powers.
After a mysterious stranger waltzes into her life and saves her from two demon attacks, Shelby embraces her supernatural gifts. As she grows into the role of Protector, romantic feelings for Gabe, hidden deep within her, awaken.
But Shelby’s newfound faith is threatened when an Azazel brutally murders someone close to her.

Lynn is a powerhouse, a great mentor and example to me. This girl can sit down and write 25,000 words or more in a day or two. I adore this sister in Christ and am so grateful God hooked us up! Make sure and visit her at lynnrush.wordpress.com.
Lynn Rush writes fiction with a robust element of Faith. I love her heroines because they are energetic and hip. Her supernatural/paranormal romance stories are believable and smart. Lynn Rush has several manuscripts on her digital bookcase, but for the first spotlighted series, I chose her first.
Light of Truth by Lynn Rush
I’ve pursued LIGHT OF TRUTH by Lynn Rush, and I am a fan! This is better than Twilight on steroids, and I can’t wait to see it in print.
( And Lauryn Abbott won a prize this time. Tune in next week to win yours! )
