Title: How can I view the BookBub blurb for my promo?
Post by: Jan Hurst-Nicholson on April 29, 2019, 08:27:45 PM

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question  :icon_rolleyes:.

I recently did a free International Bookbub promo, but I never got to see their blurb as SA buys from the US. I've asked BookBub, but haven't had a reply. They asked what I thought of their blurb in their questionnaire and I mentioned that I'd never seen it.
As it was a very successful promo I'm really interested in reading the blurb. Any ideas of how I can view it?

Can you see this?

If not, it says:

When the Turners relocate from Liverpool to South Africa, they do their best to adjust — despite their profound ignorance of the local way of life. A hilarious fish-out-of-water comedy!

I never knew Bookbub wrote additional blurbs themselves.  I checked mine from the deal I had in December and it's still there, and they really did an impressive job with it.

We should ask if their blurb writers do any freelance work on the side  Grin  :hehe They make great elevator pitch blurbs.  :cool:
