episode 36: What makes a blurb unsuccessful?


The previous episode of Letters and Numbers focused on the patterns in successful blurbs, so it’s only fitting that this time, we take a look at unsuccessful blurbs.

After all, sometimes we learn more from examining (our and others’) mistakes than we do by only looking at examples of best practice.

Join author, linguist, and mathematician-in-the-making Sarah on an exploration of the world through the lens of letters and numbers!
