Inside the Paper Box: {Happy Magazine Day Giveaway}
Posted by Jessie Lathroum at 12/30/2009
Ann December 30, 2009 at 11:30 PM
I'm first! Love your blog! Happy 2010 to you!
Veronica December 31, 2009 at 1:08 AM
Hey there, Dodt!
I love looking at your blog and seeing all of the cool stuff you make. Your box is lovely :) And I hope you have agreat New Years Eve (perhaps you will dance the Cupid Shuffle...).
Anonymous December 31, 2009 at 1:59 PM
Hello lovely lady! I also follow along to see what you're making next and to see what the Maryland Lathroums are into. I was a little bit hoping you'd draw my name in the exchange - oh well, there's always next year! As much as I love Miss Claire, I don't think one more thing will fit in this tiny house until the addition is done, so don't put my name in the drawing please. But I do want to know how you got started making these lovelies. - Holli
Love the comment about the cupid shuffle...just make sure you are facing the correct way this time. And don't forget the "real" words to the song! Good luck with your giveaway and Happy New Year to both you and Tom!!!
Lori January 1, 2010 at 1:19 AM
Yippee and congratulations on making the print!! Something funny to tell?? Make you laugh? Well how about my idea of a special way to ring in the New Year was to savor the pages of Feb 2010 Romantic Homes, in a quaint pink bedroom in pink P.J's, smelling of Cherry Blossoms bath products and feeling like a lazy daisy queen? Not to funny but neither am I!!LOL Great site! Lori
ginny January 3, 2010 at 9:31 AM
HI there! I just became a follower. Actually, I saw your little blurb in this months Romantic Homes and so I visited your blog and I am so glad that I did! The only funny thing that happened recently was that I spent New Years Eve in a hot bubble bath, watching Julie and Julia, and reading a magazine! I love the box and hope I am a winner!
brite January 5, 2010 at 8:42 AM
My word, you should have a lot more comments than this! I became a follower after the SMS giveaway and this is such a beautiful place. I just redecorated our Spare Room (one day to be my daughter's room when I am forced to give up my sewing space) in orange and pink and blue, so I would LOVE to win this! Something humorous...everything I think of has to do with my kids, and realistically I'm probably the only one who even thinks they are funny. :) Four year-old son playing his new harmonica (thanks, Aunt Jax!) until I want to throw it out the window, only to realize that the one year-old is laughing his head off. First thing that's made this sick baby smile in days! Worth the headache!! Have a great day!
Brooke January 5, 2010 at 11:59 AM
Hi! Your blog is beautiful... as is the giveaway! I used to have a subscription to Romantic Homes via my MIL, but have since moved and they never responded to my correct address (and it has been a couple years) but love the magazine. Something funny... just now while playing a game, the kids had to pretend to eat ice cream, and my 3 year old son grabbed my 2 year olds doll and pretended to lick it's head! It was funny to me! Hope it got a smile at least!
Brooke January 5, 2010 at 12:00 PM
Beachgirl January 5, 2010 at 3:08 PM
Hi! I just signed up to follow you...
Now for something funny....I think it's funny (cool) that you're the first "local" blog that I've found....I'm an AA county neighbor....
Sarah C January 5, 2010 at 9:02 PM
Brite, my friend (see above comment) told me about your blog....really lovely. I look forward to being inspired by you! My Mom subscribs to Romantic Homes so I'm going to look at your article when I'm at her house on Sunday :o)

Left coronary artery occlusion caused by a large thrombus on the left coronary cusp in a patient with a continuous-flow ventricular assist device — Kyushu University
Left coronary artery occlusion caused by a large thrombus on the left coronary cusp in a patient with a continuous-flow ventricular assist device
Seiko Nakajima, Osamu Seguchi, Yoshihiro Murata, Tomoyuki Fujita, Hiroki Hata, Takafumi Yamane, Michinari Hieda, Takuya Watanabe, Takuma Sato, Haruki Sunami, Masanobu Yanase, Junjiro Kobayashi, Takeshi Nakatani
Despite continual improvements in ventricular assist device (VAD) therapy, various clinical issues are emerging. Importantly, various types of thromboembolic complications have been reported to date. Recently, we encountered a rare continuous-flow VAD-related thromboembolic event that resulted in acute myocardial infarction. A 26-year-old female who just underwent HeartMate II® VAD implantation suddenly developed widespread anterolateral myocardial infarction on postoperative day 16. Echocardiography and aortography revealed a large thrombus on the left coronary cusp of the aortic valve that almost completely occluded the left coronary ostium. After VAD implantation, her aortic valve did not open, even at relatively low pump speeds; this was thought to be one of the causes for thrombus formation. Continuous suction of blood from the left ventricle and non-pulsatile flow into the ascending aorta resulted in a continuously closed aortic valve and stagnation of blood in the coronary cusp. Furthermore, both small body size (body surface area <1.3 m 2) and postoperative right ventricular failure may have exacerbated blood stagnation and thrombus formation in this patient. We should have adjusted the anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy protocols based on the patient's condition. She underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery and remained in clinically stable condition afterwards.

Honoring Veterans on Memorial Day: John Reyes' Amazing Bike Ride
Things at Baby Toolkit headquarters have been pretty tough for the last few weeks. Our close relative (a mother of young children) had a massive stroke the day before Mother's Day and has not yet regained consciousness.
This is why Jim and I did not stalk our new hero, John Reyes, when he rode through our region last weekend on his multi-month bicycle journey to raise funds, awareness, and friends for Fisher House.

Fisher House is a great organization to remember this Memorial Day weekend. Fisher Houses are much like Ronald McDonald Houses, but they serve the families of wounded soldiers receiving treatment at military hospitals. Families of wounded soldiers can stay free while they visit and support their injured loved ones.
This is an important cause we can all assist this holiday weekend.
I'd never heard of Fisher House before last month. Soldiers' Angels (earlier: Project Awesome 2010: Like Charlie's Angels With Yarn) sent an email about John Reyes and his incredible journey.
The Friday before Mother's Day, John Reyes departed from his hometown of San Antonio, Texas on a bicycle trip that will eventually take him through Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia, the District of Columbia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, and Louisiana. That's 20 states and a district.
This self-described "comic book nerd" will be riding through the hot months of May, June, and July in some of the nation's muggiest weather. Just reading his written itinerary is exhausting.
And he's doing this for other people, people who willingly serve us all- sometimes at great personal costs.
His fundraising target is $5000 for the trip, and he's currently at $1,220.
Please donate generously this Memorial Day weekend to John's Team Fisher campaign.
Bloggers, please offer John some publicity this patriotic weekend, July 4th, or when he rides through your area. Tell your friends about him on Facebook and Twitter.
Please check his itinerary to see if he'll be in your area. If he will be, can you send a message to local media outlets? Publicity for John's trip is also excellent publicity for Fisher House Foundation.
We're inspired by John's generous efforts and are quite sorry we couldn't meet him when he came through our area. Maybe you can say "hello" for us if he ends up in your neck of the woods (and offer him a cool drink or an evening meal).
Even if you are nowhere near his route, you can follow his Bostonandbackride blog, watch his YouTube vlogs, and follow his progrees on Twitter (@bostonandback). You can also see some of his photos along the way on Flickr.
Enjoy a few moments of his ride...
Safe journeys, John!
Thank you to all those who give and have given to our nation through national service!

My conspiracy Theory: February 2008
Well, the circle of life is interesting. Our newest member to the family is a black lab that had been hit by a car.... apparently that isn't all she was hit by... or hit up by....... oh no! She is having puppies, her temperature is 99.9 and below 100 means puppies in 24 hours........... I can hardly believe this craziness, we just figured out the dog was pregnant and now she is about to give birth! Holy Crap! She is a ho-dog! Cassanova would have thought this was disgusting. He would not laugh at having puppies around. I think he had a soft spot for the dog though.............
I'll let you know what we ended up with and how many... who knows she may have got knocked up by a chihuaha! LOL

Have you ever sat and thought about life after death? Wow, deep huh? Not really. I don't actually think there is 'life' after death as that would mean your not dead. But, I believe in ghosts. Funny thing about that... we have a cabinet door that opens and closes by itself ALL OF THE TIME. We have ruled out any animals doing it........ well, when Cassy died or right before he died, my daughter said the cabinets would probably be banging good that night... and I'll be a buttered biscuit if the cabinets didn't bang for hours that night... SPOOKY! Not being a scaredy cat, it didn't bother me. So, was that our Cassanova? I don't know what it was, but it is interesting.
Just thought I'd share that with you. Until I blog again... SD Cat!

He walked beside me
He was all things big and small
Apart in my heart we will never be
It will be us together again one day, Cassanova and me.
Forever and always... Cassy's mom

susan in stitches: Move over sara Lee
That. Is. So. Cooooool!!!!! Some day, I will find the time in life to take neat classes like that! Of course, I don't think I will be able to come up with anything nearly as stunning. You do have the advantage of fiber talent, you know! Rest up and make something else! When you make pretty things, it makes me happy!!
they look absolutely awesome! my dh is good at felting.....my favourtie all time jumper in the hot wash in the washing machine!!!! that was many years ago, and if i had of kept it, i could have done something wonderful with it, but way back then it was just a very ruined favourtie jumper.......
They look great! Yours really is a work of art - I would definitely keep it hanging somewhere public in your house, so all your visitors can admire it!
wow! they look stunning... i was sad i couldn't go but looking at the process i don't think my back could have taken that sort of punishment. not yet anyway.love your colours - a really beautiful piece
Amazing use of colour Susan.
what a cool concept!!! That's amazing. I can't quite get my head around how it happens, but I liked looking at it anyway. :-)

Having sat up talking to my best friend back home until after 4 o’clock this morning, I once again wanted the world to end when the alarm went off a few hours later. I really am not a very sensible person, these days.

I’m now in charge of the school’s latest endeavour – an after-school club for a dozen kindergarteners who can’t go home at 3 with the others, and whose parents are presumably willing to shell out a bit extra for another hour of babysitting combined with English. As it meant I had two of my small but intensive three-times-a-week elementary classes taken off my hands, I was all for this project, and sat down full of enthusiasm to discuss it with the director. Which books do I need to use? What do you want me to teach?
It was then, ladies and gentlemen, that I reached another milestone in this tentative teaching career of mine. One of those magical moments that make me return to my classroom and silently punch the air in triumph while grinning like the old Cheshire cat. Jennifer passed me a couple of books and said, You can have a look at these and use ideas from them. Or we can order books for the kids if you want. But it’s your class – you know them, and I want you to do whatever you think will work best for them.
OK, I said uncertainly, used to being pressed to finish course books on time, but how long do I have to finish a book?
She shook her head, laughing. It is your class, she said. You do it your own way. You’re the teacher.
This may not sound like much, but good grief, I was walking on air for about a week afterwards. Having a job where you’re allowed to give your opinion, have your ideas taken on board, and eventually be set free to do it all your own way… that’s just not something I’ve ever had before. And of course it works out well for everyone, because when management lets go and trusts you, you tend to want to prove that they were right to do so – which is why I’m probably working harder now that I have for months. For every 40 minute lesson, I’ve planned for between one and three hours. And guess what? They have been my most successful and fun classes to date. I’m excited and happy ∴ the kids are excited and happy. Maybe my director is more shrewd than I first suspected. :)

US 8036407 B2Abstract
21. The hearing device of claim 20, wherein the period is up to about two hours. Description
This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 11/053,656 filed Feb. 7, 2005, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,298,857, which claims the benefit of priority of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/542,776 filed on Feb. 5, 2004, the full disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.
The application is related to but do not claim the benefit of the following: U.S. Pat. No. 6,473,513 issued Oct. 29, 2002; U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/199,669 filed Nov. 25, 1998, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,940,988; U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/044,493 filed Jan. 26, 2005, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,379,555; U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/053,174, filed Feb. 7, 2005, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,388,961; and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/058,197, filed Feb. 14, 2005, now U.S. Pat. No. 7,557,747.
In various embodiments, housing 46 and/or microphone assembly 42 can include fixtures adapted for facilitating insertion or removal of device 38 from the ear canal. FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of device 38 including insertion tab 70 and removal loops 80 coupled to a the lateral end 42L of microphone assembly 42 in which sound port 44 is medial facing. Because of the medial orientation of sound port 44 these fixtures are thus positioned so as not to interfere with conductance of sound to sound port 44. Specifically, they can be displaced away from the sound port sufficiently so as not to, attenuate, dampen or otherwise interfere with conduction of sound waves to the port. The medial orientation of sound port 44 also allows fixtures 70 and 80 to be centrally located or otherwise evenly disposed on the microphone assembly so as to more evenly distribute the forces applied to assembly 42 during insertion, facilitating insertion and removal and reducing risks of component failure. The medial orientation also allows the fixtures to be more mechanically robust in design, e.g., greater rigidity, strength, etc., also allowing for easier and safer insertion and removal of device 38. Also, other mechanical features or devices, including magnets and magnetic plates, cords, etc., as well as combinations of thereof can be used for removal or other functions (e.g., wireless communication to the hearing device) without interfering with sound transmission or the magnetic properties of the microphone. Thus in use, medially oriented microphone port 44 provides a means for improving the safety (e.g., improved reliability) and ease in inserting and removing the hearing device by the user or a medical practioner Further description of removal fixtures, systems and related removal tools is found in con-currently filed U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/053,174.
As discussed above, in various embodiments, the coupling 36 between battery assembly 52 and the speaker assembly 32 can be a flexible coupling or joint 36 f. Suitable flexible couplings 36 f can include but are not limited to swivel joints, articulated joints, elastomeric or other flexible tubing and other flexible couplings known in the art. In a preferred embodiment, flexible joint 36 f can comprise necked elastomeric tubing that fits over end portions of the battery and speaker assemblies. The necked portion 36 n, can be achieved using a restricting O-ring 36 o (see FIG. 7A) or using hot air necking techniques known in the medical tubing/catheter arts. In particular embodiments, flexible coupling 36 f can be configured to limit the range of motion of battery assembly 42 with respect to the speaker assembly to keep the battery and receiver assemblies from jack-knifing in the ear canal. In various embodiments, flexible coupling can be configured to limit the range of motion to no more than 90� with specific embodiments of no more than 75, 60, 45 and 30�. Selected range of motions can be achieved by the use of mechanical stops which are integral or otherwise coupled to coupling 36 f. In some embodiments, hearing device 38 may also include a circumferential barrier system 62. Typically, the barrier system will comprise a membrane that is placed around a circumferential section of housing 46 that includes cavity ports 61. Barrier system 62 is configured to protect cavity 60 from liquid and debris entering the cavity while allowing sound and air access into the cavity and thus to sound port 44 and battery vent 54. Barrier system 62 can comprise a membrane that is preferably hydrophobic, oleophobic and cerumenophobic to prevent or minimize water, oils and cerumen from entering the cavity 60 and fouling the battery vent and sound port. The barrier system is also desirably acoustically transparent allowing the transmission of sound through the barrier system unencumbered and in a non-distorted manner. This combination of properties can be achieved in a single layer membrane or in a multilayer membrane where different layers have different properties. Suitable materials for barrier include flouro-polymers including porous flouro-polymers such as expanded PTFE membranes available from W. L. Gore & Associates (Flagstaff, Ariz.). Should the barrier become temporarily occluded by water or debris when the hearing device is worn for extended periods or during showering, swimming, etc. cavity 60 functions as an air reservoir 60 r (described herein) for microphone 40 and battery 50 in order to maintain proper functioning of these components. Barrier 62 can also be configured to maintain the reservoir function of the cavity by preventing water or other fluid from flooding the cavity.

The State of Game Reviews – Part Three
We continue our analysis of what I believe to be our broken modern day game review model.
Many other games, across all consoles (although it seems like the PS3 has most certainly been graded on a curve and nitpicked more than the other two consoles), have received similar treatment. Reviews are often filled with a series of nitpicks, or vague declarations of “I didn’t like this,” without any clarification or reasoning for feeling that way.
I read a review of Resistance 2 a few weeks back, and the reviewer covered the multi-player aspect of the game (which I could take up a whole article describing), with one or two sentences, and those sentences were him lamenting that the game dared to go big with increasing player count from 40 to 60 in an online match. This seemed to be enough to justify slapping a 6/10 score on the game. Why? Were there any other issues that warranted a subtraction of 4 points?
Was it the controls? Was it the lack of an important feature that would have made playing with 59 other real life gamers easier? Was it sloppy game design? What was it? The reviewer never elaborated, so any potential readers will simply have to take his word for it, and unfortunately, many a reader would assume that, because he is a paid reviewer, he knows more about the medium than they do. This is dangerous territory. The ability of the media to influence public opinion should be approached with care and responsibility by that same media.
There are a lot of new gamers out there, and they expect the gaming industry to be truthful and informative with their assessment of the industry and it’s products.
So far this generation, we have not gotten that truthful, and objective assessment. Maybe it’s too much corporate politics. Maybe it’s back-door deals and other shenanigans (ie, Eidos trying to moderate the poor reviews of the latest Tomb Raider).
It’s a sad state for the gaming media when the console wars have begun to seep into the minds of the press.
Tune in to tomorrow for Part 4, where I outline the steps I believe need to be taken in order to get reviews back on track, and having true meaning and relevance again.

Apple 2.0 Archives: January 2009
[Originally posted Jan. 27, 2009 on Fortune.com]
One day before Apple's acting CEO told Wall Street analysts that his company would not stand for having its intellectual property "ripped off" -- a remark clearly aimed at certain iPhone-like features of the Palm Pre -- the U.S. Patent Office awarded Apple Patent No. No. 7479949.
This 358-page document, originally filed on Sept. 5, 2007, is the mother of all iPhone patents. Signed by 21 Apple (AAPL) employees -- starting with Jobs, Steven P. and Forestall, Scott -- it covers everything from the way a finger or fingers touch the screen to the heuristics that turn those touches into commands.

[Originally posted Jan. 15, 2009 on Fortune.com]
Apple (AAPL) shares dropped 7.56% to $78.88 in after-hours trading in New York on news Wednesday that COO Tim Cook was taking over day-to-day operations -- a $6.7 billion hit on Apple's market capitalization.
This is not the first time Cook has stepped in while Steve Jobs dealt with a serious medical condition.
Cook ran the shop for a month in 2004 while Jobs recovered from surgery that removed a malignant tumor from his pancreas (see here). The stock fell then too -- down 2.3% on Aug. 2, 2004, the day after Apple announced the news -- a loss that widened to nearly 8% by week's end.
But by Sept. 1, 2004 the stock had not only recovered, but gained 10.9% on its July 30 price -- closing at what now seems an impossibly low $35.86.
Some of that bump may be attributed to investor relief that Jobs was due back at the helm. But whether or not Jobs returns from his latest medical leave, the fact is that Tim Cook has been running day-to-day operations at Apple for some time, as Adam Lashinsky's long profile in Fortune makes clear. (See The genius behind Steve.)

We think Apple has at least one thing right -- the Macintosh is the one machine with the potential to challenge IBM’s hold on the market
The Macintosh uses an experimental pointing device called a "mouse." There is no evidence that people want to use these things.

YummY! - Hungarian Traditional Food @ Marvelosa Budapest (Marvelosa Kávézó)
You are at - Jotaro's Blog / FootSteps / YummY! / Europe 2015-Western Food / Hungarian Traditional Food @ Marvelosa Budapest
Hungarian Traditional Food @ Marvelosa Budapest (Marvelosa Kávézó)
I had pondered on whether to write this blog or not. No, it's not because the food is not good or the place is a dump. On the contrary, the food was very good and the place so cosy that one would want to linger on even after finishing the food. Marvelosa, has such an affect on it's patrons, they can just sip their coffee and look at the Danube flowing by slowly just across the road.
I hesitate to write because most of the photos I took came out blurry; we had just visited Buda Castle and unbeknownst to me, my sweat had tainted my camera lens. But then Marvelosa is just too nice a place not too share, blurry photos or not.
Marvelosa is a small place, occupying one narrow side of a larger building and has been operating since 1900, a year after the building was completed. It was refurbished in 2005 and as the operators put it ".. to create a place where everybody can have a good time and enjoy themselves. Where they can realize how important it is to stop for a while in our rushed present days and hectic world..... where everybody can feel like arriving home". How true that is, even though we were not from Hungary we did feel at home and we did pause for more than a while.
One can either sit inside or dine al-fresco at tables on a blocked out section of the road. Al-fresco seems to be a favourite among patrons...
... so were the indoor ground floor front table or the one at the first floor balcony. It's here that one can slowly while away the time sipping coffee, tea or wine while watching the world pass by.
The interior had been tastefully done with furniture of different designs, style and colours laid out spaciously. At corners, cabinets and shelves, were put up to create that homely touch. Paintings hung from the lightly coloured walls. It's an odd blend of colours and styles and yet it had that "you have arrived home" feel about it.
A cosy corner at the first floor.
The paintings on the wall were not classics but more of portraits done neo-modern style...
... which were bright and colourful with a personal style.
One of the many pieces of furniture.
(to see how cosy the place is click here to go to their gallery , the gallery also shows how nicely their food are presented)
Okay then, let's have a look at the food...
We kicked off with their goulash and glasses of Hungarian Dreher beer.
The goulash was moderately thick, full of chunks of beef and vegetables, and well spiced. Although not as good as the one I had at Durnsteinerhof Restaurant while cycling at the Wachau valley in Austria, it was very tasty and a good representation of Hungarian cuisine.
See how generous they were with the ingredients. By itself it can be quite filling.
Mikszath Hungarian Chicken Paprika (Paprikás Csirke) with home-made pasta. A very good dish with savoury sauce topped with a whisk of cream.
Look at that pasta! .... don't look like the usual one.... it's because it's home-made in small nuggets which made them softly chewy. These are Tarhonya (Rivilchas): Grated Fresh Egg Pasta.
"Lautrec" Chicken Thigh Fillet served with grilled vegetables and honey-chilli sauce. With horizontal slits the meat was nicely done yet still juicy. The sauce was unique, sweet and spice going well with the chicken.
We did have other dishes like salads and other mains but the photos did not turn out well; so to do justice to the place I won't put them here.
After finishing with the food, we lingered on, slowly sipping our beer enjoying the slow pace while watching the world pass by on the road and slightly further away boats on the Danube.
Marvelosa was aptly named, we did indeed have a marvellous time of good traditional Hungarian food in a very cosy homely place!
Here are Marvelosa's menus:
Marvelosa's soup & starter menu.
Marvelosa's salads & mains menu.
And lots of drinks to choose from to while away the time:

Analysis: Libya rebels seek to avoid Tripoli battle - Reuters
August 21, 2011 / 4:32 PM / 8 years ago
“I’m assuming the Tripoli fighting could be the fiercest,” said Hayat Alvi, lecturer in Middle East politics at the United States Naval War College. “The wild card will be the Tripoli public. True loyalties will have to finally manifest themselves. I’m predicting in the rebels’ favor, but we don’t know what Gaddafi and his sons have up their sleeves.”
“I think they’ll wait on the outskirts and hope for either an uprising or that Gaddafi decided to call it a day and leaves,” said David Hartwell, Middle East analyst for IHS Jane’s. “If they do go in, they could find it very difficult and they will be keen to avoid that. It’s relatively obvious that NATO has been providing close air support for the rebels.
“That’s one thing in open countryside or lightly populated areas — although it pushes the Security Council mandate, to put it mildly — but it would be almost impossible in Tripoli.”
“The big sharks have already left the scene, he said. “It’s not going to be Stalingrad. Tripoli is very small. People know each other. People negotiate their way forward. Gaddafi is bound to have some people who will put up a symbolic fight. But these are mostly thugs and there is no organized force left of any size to check the rebels.”
The key battle now, Stratfor said, was psychological — with the rebel agenda to paint a picture of inevitable victory that would enthuse new uprisings and prompt Gaddafi loyalists to abandon their cause to save their necks.
Saddam evaded U.S. forces for months following the 2003 fall of Baghdad before they eventually tracked him down — although most analysts believe such a scheme would prove tougher in Libya because of its more disparate geography.

What’s the Difference Between Book Blurb and Synopsis? – The Wordsmith
Technical Communication / Writing, in general	What’s the Difference Between Book Blurb and Synopsis?	April 21, 2017 Suyog Ketkar1 Comment	As I ready my book for its release, there are a few things that everyone tells me to do. Two of which are to write the book blurb and synopsis. This post is for those who confuse between the two, much like I once did.
For those who are rushing, here is the gist: Both project the book to different sets of readers. So, the simple difference is that a book blurb SHOULD NOT contain the conclusion because it is your book’s sales pitch, while a synopsis is a 200-word version of the book itself. Think about suspense, drama, and questions when you are writing a blurb for your book. But, give one-sentence answers to those questions in your synopsis.
Here’s the elaborate version:
A book blurb is your way of selling your book. Like the book cover is one of the biggest selling points for any book, a book blurb helps sell the idea of the book to those who are in search of reading something either new or out of their usually picked genres.
There is one big difference though between a book blurb and a synopsis. A book blurb does not include the ending. Your fans, readers, and prospects wish to read your book. You can make it more exciting by raising some questions without giving away hints about the answers. Through the book’s blurb, you can give an idea about the plot and about why is the suspense/flow of events bothersome/intriguing, but do not let the ending spill out to the prospective readers. This drama is enough for them to make the purchases. But what do you do if you are writing a nonfiction because you can’t use drama, for sure? In such cases, you can use questions; questions that intrigue the readers; questions that make them think; questions they had, but could never answer.
Your publishers get hundreds of manuscripts every day. So, if they would read each one of those, they would take a lot of time to finish the publication process. Your synopsis makes the job easy for them. In simple words, a synopsis is telling “what’s your story”.
Like we discussed, the book blurb does not contain the ending. But, the synopsis should contain not only the gist of your story but also how things conclude. If it is a work of fiction, tell the publisher how the protagonist brings the bad forces to justice. If it is a work of nonfiction, tell the publisher how you as a protagonist bring off things, or so to say.
Tell the publisher who the protagonist is; about what challenges the protagonist is confronting; about why it is the time for the protagonist to prepare for and face the battle of their life; and, passively, about how facing challenges makes living worth it.
There is one important point for you to consider. Follow the tone of your work. If it is a work of fiction, follow the tone of your novel. Be romantic if your novel is about love, romance, and togetherness. Be funny if your novel is full of humorous incidents.
Why does understanding this difference matter to me?
I want to sell my book. I want everyone to appreciate what I’ve written; not because I have written it, but because their reading it will make a difference to their lives. I want the readers to acknowledge my addressing some of the questions they have had. And, because understanding this will help me create content that addresses the right audiences rightly. Words matter. And, so does the impact they create.
