I think the reason I can't write a good blurb for Heart of Rock yet is that, while I basically know the ending, it hasn't jelled yet. I was hoping writing a blurb for it might help with that, but it hasn't.
So I'll know where to turn for advice - before too long (I hope) I'll have two books needing blurbs. And I know about trouble with endings. I'm trying to pull together the conclusion to my series. Like you, I know the ending, but actually getting it out on paper is proving very difficult. Just when the pace should be increasing it seems to be slowing down ... or maybe it just feels slow because it's coming out so slowly ... or maybe it's the pressure of wanting it to feel like it was worth all the rest to get to this point. All I know for certain is that it's not coming easy.
