I have a funny blurb story. On my last book I asked a well-known author (I won't say who) if she would mind doing a blurb for me. She is a friend and said she would be happy--but could I write up something for her to give an idea of what I wanted/needed? I dashed off a few lines and sent them to her to review. She responded, saying "that's perfect. Go ahead and put my name on it." So--I wrote the blurb and she attached her name to it without hesitation or changing a single word or punctuation mark! That's show biz, kids.... :-)

Too bad about the famous author. It doesn't cost anything to be kind. But "blurb whores"--LOL!
