Book Blurb Friday #10

It’s Book Blurb Friday #10. Wow #10. Hosted by Lisa Ricard Claro, write a book blurb jacket in 150 words based on the photo. Head to Lisa’s blog for BBF directions. This weeks photo is by Becky Povich.

Here it is in 105 words. I believe that’s a record for me… over a hundred.

Landscape Luck

When the yard was demolished due to construction, Obermoeller had a grand idea to create a waterfall. After years of toil, she finally accomplished her getaway paradise. Obermoeller learned quite a few tricks along the way. From beginners to professionals, this is a must have comprehensive DIY landscape book. Save your back and figure out rock stacking techniques. Want to keep those expensive koi alive? Be surprised at what predators eat koi. Algae a problem? Obermoeller’s natural methods for keeping clear water is in here too! Plus loads more… all for $19.95. Act now and get two, yes, two Landscape Luck books for only $19.95!

  1. Okay, you seriously rock. This is terrific. You always make me smile. I LOVE Obermoeller. I say it every week. She is multi-talented and really gets around. Great blurb...you always take it places I never think of, and I love the surprise.

    How did you get that darn picture to post? LOL I had to fool with it for an hour and finally removed the frame, and then the photo credit expanded all by itself. I have gremlins in my Blogger! Glad you were able to make it work.

  2. I couldn't help but laugh at your price-just $19.95, just like the infomercials,but decidedly more interesting. 105 and climbing!

  3. Obermoeller is a con artist - there's nothing 'lucky' about creating a lake and a landscape!

  8. Ha! Like everybody else, your t.v. ad was funny. But, your pond book sounds like an excellent idea. When does it hit the stands, Lynn? Great job!

  11. This book is a must-have for all amateur water garden designers and a snip at $19.95! Why does $19.95 sound so much cheaper than $20.00?

  12. Very cute! I agree--that Obermoeller is one talented and popular lady! (P.S.-How *do* you get rid of algae naturally?? Barley never seems to work for me!)
