I Will Blurb Any Book Within 24 Hours! #6

By

Tired of waiting weeks or even MONTHS for back-cover endorsements from recognizable authors? I, Mickey Hess, will blurb any book – that’s right, ANY book – within 24 hours! Just look at these satisfied customers:

Todd Dills’ Triumph of the Ape: “I met Todd Dills some years ago at a cult-hero party fueled by drink and ethical drugs. He was anonymously disturbing, and was adjective-impaired, for a literary icon. In retrospect, he was wearing a fictional suit. He catapulted pretty much everyone, tossing people at the city like darts. People were afraid, all those years ago. And now Todd has written a book.” – Mickey Hess

Mel Bosworth’s Grease Stains, Kismet, and Maternal Wisdom: “It is a fictional novel, the kind of thing a young Hemingway would have pretended to write.” – Mickey Hess

Cole Drewes’ Hounds of Heaven: “After producing numerous books, snickering authors go home and start writing another book, maybe to pay their mortgage. Cole Drewes, in his well-regarded debut novel, describes people via fiction. And in the end, most of it isn’t true.” – Mickey Hess

Belinda Kroll’s Catching the Rose: “The line between fact and fiction is notoriously violent. Catching the Rose looks like fiction to me.” – Mickey Hess

There are plenty more where those came from, trust me! Authors, contact me today at [email protected] and LET’S GET BLURBING!!!
