I’m thinking of updating my author tagline which is, in case you’ve forgotten, as follows:
Provocative lawyers. Overwhelming problems. Undeniable passions.
I’m feeling very lukewarm about this tagline, I must say. It seemed fine when I made it up years ago, but now I’m thinking … meh.
Part of the problem is that my new book, Sweeter Than Revenge, isn’t about lawyers. It’s about publicists.
A problem, as you can see.
For my new tagline, I’m thinking of something with … I dunno … the words emotional, sexy, and funny in it. Can you tell I’m not big on this sort of brainstorming thing? It’s really hard and painful to describe your own writing and, to tell you the truth, I’d rather stick pins under my fingernails.
Anyway, under the guise of looking to other authors for inspiration about taglines when I was, in fact, wasting a great deal of time, I stumbled across Tess Gerritsen’s blog, wherein she uses donkeys and scary trails to make a point about author’s careers. Since I’m feeling angst-y about the upcoming book, this is right up my alley.
You should check it out.
