Blurb, Blurb, Blurrr....

You all know the drill. Been there done that. Hated every second of it!

Most of the time I'm not too put off by creating the blurb. Occasionally it's even fun. 

I didn't create this one, but it's a blurb with a shameless plug

There are hundreds, perhaps thousands, of articles, websites, and blogs dedicated to writing the perfect blurb. Google it and see. I'm not here to give advice, I'm here to ask your help! 



I keep re-writing my blurb and posting on a few writers Facebook sites and they keep bouncing back with hems and ha’s

Here is my last attempt – still searching for exactly the right hook.


Wife N’ Death

When Angelica commits murder/suicide, she thought her troubles would end. What came next was worse than her tortured life. In purgatory, she is stalked by the one she killed with no way out.
Until one day, something beyond her control changes.
~
Crystal runs from her troubled past to a new house in a new town, in a nice neighborhood. She believes this will be the best new beginning for her little girl. Not long after moving her daughter begins to act out of character and Crystal blames herself for the change.
Only Angelica knows the truth; that these women should not be in her house.  Now she must find a way to stop what she started. To save the innocent and break her own bonds.
Before evil rules them all.

Chime in, tell me what you think – or share your blurb woes
