Still five pages? What about the blurb? The shorter the piece the greater the pain. I recently rewrote the short blurb for my first book. It also0 took me two weeks, going back and forth many times, getting feedback and writhing on frustration. I hope I finally got it right. It was much more difficult that losing 60 pounds, giving birth, or, well, just about anything I’ve ever done.
