I think this is an excellent blurb! I see nothing to correct. Perfect use of artwork. The only thing I could suggest (especially for FanStory) is to double space between paragraphs to keep it easy to read.

Oh, I actually like your tagline and your writing blurb. The format really stands out to me. I like the larger sized fonts to separate a portion of the wording. Good luck in the contest.

First effort or not, you've done a bang-up job on this one, Earl (a good thing in case you wondered).

The quote at the start ROCKS. Increased font size was a great move, the picture used is perfect for the story line and the spiel is great.

Very well done, dude!

Good start for a continuing story. You grabbed the reader's attention and it's high time you finish the story. I want to read it. I'm a western fanatic, a poet and a wanna-be writer. Thank you for sharing this jem.

Doo is a character I like--so is the period and the territory.
You've set up the characters and the various conflicts.
I might name a particular Shawnee war chief, indicating a particular grudge (and another subplot).

Fenimore Cooper and Kenneth Roberts are the only two authors I know of who have done justice to frontier action east of the Mississippi.

Good luck with your entry.

Peace, Lee

    Thank you for your rating. I hope to do justice to the action, but it won't be anywhere near JFC or Kenneth Roberts. Great minds think alike, I was already thinking of a Shawnee chief to pug in. Thanks again!

Hmmm, the use of the word dude in a frontier story threw me. I like this genre so I'd probably read it. The tag line was very interesting, and definitely caught my attention more than the others I have read thus far. The first paragraph read better for me than the last, but your ending line was good. "On one..." was where it started getting so-so in the last paragraph. Maybe I'd break that last half up into more stand-alone sentences. Not bad for a first try. I doubt I could have done better. Good luck in the contest.

Very down to earth and an attention getter, I would read it just to see what happens with the jealous women involved in the story, and how Doo Carter handles the situation, along with all the other problems he's being faced with. Good luck in the contest.

I find the blurb to be quite revealing about the main character. The description should interest readers drawn to this type of wilderness hero into reading the book. The aspect of a love interest might bring in romance enthusiasts as well.
The tag line might work on the right reader.
