Book descriptions & author biographies

Compelling, honest book descriptions and author bios for retailers and press.

Your description is often the deciding factor after the cover. We write hooks, blurbs and author bios in lengths for retailer pages, back covers and media kits.

What you gain

  • Reader-focused copy

    Leads with what makes the book worth reading.

  • Multiple lengths

    Short, medium and long versions.

  • Formatted for retailers

    Using the formatting retailers support.

How it works

  1. 1

    Questionnaire

    You answer a short questionnaire about the book, its hook and its readers.

  2. 2

    First drafts

    We write the book description and author bio in your genre's style.

  3. 3

    Revisions

    You review and we revise within the agreed rounds.
