Hi folks,
I'm pleased to present a couple of blurbs today--one for a writer I admire very much and another which was given to one of my books.
The first is what I wrote about Earl Javorsky's newest novel, DOWN TO NO GOOD. Here's what I have to say about this terrific book:
Blurb
for Earl Javorsky’s DOWN TO NO GOOD
Hand
me a book with a P.I. who’s been shot in the head and come back from the dead,
along with a psychic who solves crimes right and left, along with some other
folks who are more than a bit irregular and I’m unplugging the TV, turning off
the alarm clock, and hiding my phone under a pillow where I can’t hear it. I
just emerged from an all-night sesh with DOWN TO NO GOOD, a volatile mess of
pages littered with the madness that Earl Javorsky’s fevered brain
manufacturers. I’m going to the nearest mental hospital and turn myself in and
hope for some good drugs. It was worth it, though.

KIDNAPPING, JUST LIKE THAT and others.
And, then I received the following blurb from mega bestselling author Jerry Jenkins. Jerry had asked me to record a video for his writing classes on Hooked and I agreed immediately. We plan to record at least a couple more next year. He sent me the following blurb to be used for HOOKED:
Jerry Jenkins blurb for HOOKED
I read
every writing book that comes down the pike, and I like a lot of them. But I
LOVE Hooked / write fiction that grabs readers at page one and never lets
them go! As punchy as Les Edgerton’s hard-hitting fiction, Hooked takes
no prisoners. Clear, simple, direct, it offers something fresh in every
chapter. I recommend it to all my students and even my colleagues. Your writing
library won’t be complete without it.

That's all, folks!
Blue skies,
