  <title>Humor is balance | BSB73</title>
  <description>Today on the show, author Jim Heskett and copywriting guru Abigail Dunard tackle an author-submitted blurb to dissect it and understand how to write killer sales copy.&amp;amp;nbsp; To watch video of this episode, view it on Facebook at Best Page Forward. Here are this episode’s read-along selections: --Blurb: Author: Philip Rivera Title: Suburban Luchador: The Cul-de-sac Chronicles &amp;amp;nbsp; His minivan is his chariot. His mower is his weapon. Enter the whimsical world of suburbia's favorite underdog. &amp;amp;nbsp; Meet the average Joe who’s a father to three, a husband to one... a hero to all. When he’s not fighting crime in his fighter-jet-cloaked-as-a-minivan, he teaches high school and patrols the ‘hood for story material. &amp;amp;nbsp; In Suburban Luchador: The Cul-de-sac Chronicles, an ordinary guy conjures up extraordinary tales about his family, marriage, and teacher job. He's the man who's making mortgages, meatloaf, and the middle-class sexy again. &amp;amp;nbsp; This is the anthem of those who envision mowing and mopping as legendary movie scenes. These comically self-deprecating short stories will inspire you to take a fresh look at the wondrous, valiant and touching moments in everyday life. Dive into Suburban Luchador: The Cul-de-sac Chronicles and ride shotgun on a domestic road trip of epic proportions.   &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; --Abigail's Targeted Tip: Humor is all about balance. Be mindful of when, where, and how often you add moments of relatability and ridiculousness.&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp; --Other Stuff:    &amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;amp;nbsp;   Want to submit your own blurb for consideration?
