modernevil needs Dec 17, 2008 02:17AM feedback on the back-cover copy for my new book. Is it interesting? Sticky? Please take a look at this blog post
angelsfromheaven says Dec 17, 2008 11:42AM should there be two 'and,' it reads a little funny. I can see why you did it but maybe 'There is a utopian...' Or maybe just 'a utopian'
angelsfromheaven says Dec 17, 2008 11:45AM Otherwise I like them both, Both are intriguing. Good job!
modernevil says Dec 17, 2008 02:13PM angelsfromheaven: The first one is "Add", like, 'plus' or 'in addition there is a utopian city...'
modernevil says Dec 17, 2008 02:14PM Thank you both, I'm glad you liked them. Will have a version of the cover to post soon, too.
dotartdude asks Dec 17, 2008 07:52PM shouldn't you say "decimates a city population"? Zombies usually attack people, right? BRRRAAAINNNSSS. That's the only thing that stuck out.
modernevil says Dec 17, 2008 11:17PM Hmm... Interesting. The definition of decimates (which I checked while building the sentence) only refers to people/population killed.
dotartdude says Dec 18, 2008 05:12AM The third definition says "to destroy a large part of." That is the one I've run into more than the one you mention.
