Micky Hess has promised to blurb any book within 24 hours, and he is making good on that promise. Here is what writers are saying about Mickey, and the blurbs he has given them:
“Thanks, I think…” – Buzz Poole
“At first I wasn’t so sure, but by the end of your blurb, it had opened up a whole new understanding of my book.” — Shya Scanlon
“You’re funny. i support this project.” – Shane Jones
“Although I had intended [my book] to be non-fiction, you saw through the sham and corrected me. Rightly so.” – Andrew Shaffer
“I love, love, love your ‘blurbs’ — I laughed out loud, seriously. You are a wonderful writer. I don’t know what’s wrong with these morons [who won’t publish you]…” – Chandler Smith (Mickey’s agent)
Update: ” My last book was blurbed by Jackie Collins and Lisa Rinna. You will be a great followup
for that!” — Josie Brown

Dear Dr Mickey Hess,
Thank you for sending us the details of your recent record attempt for ‘Most Books Blurbed’. We are afraid to say that we are unable to accept this as a Guinness World Record.
While we certainly do not underestimate your proposal, we do however think that this item is a little too specialised for a body of reference as general as ours. We receive many thousands of record claims every year and we think you will appreciate that we are bound to favour those which reflect the greatest interest.
Guinness World Records has absolute discretion as to which Guinness World Record applications are accepted and our decision is final. Guinness World Records may at its discretion and for whatever reason identify some records as either no longer monitored by Guinness World Records or no longer viable.
As your record application has not been accepted, Guinness World Records is in no way associated with the activity relating to your record proposal and we in no way endorse this activity. If you choose to proceed with this activity then this is will be of your own volition and at your own risk.
Once again thank you for your interest in Guinness World Records.
Yours sincerely,
Marco Frigatti
Records Management Team
