Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 'Blurb Hook'?
It's the very first sentence (or paragraph) of your Amazon book description. It's the only part visible before a reader clicks 'Read more', so it must be gripping.
How long should it be?
Short and punchy. Aim for 20-40 words. You aren't summarizing the plot yet; you are creating a question in the reader's mind.
Should I include the character's name?
Yes. Readers connect with people, not plot points. Introduce the hero immediately, along with their main problem.
What makes a good hook?
Conflict and Stakes. A hero wants something (Goal), but can't have it (Obstacle), and if they fail, something bad happens (Stakes).
