Lately I’ve been seeking cover blurbs for my novels, and it was nice today to return the favor. This is the blurb I gave Bobbie Pyron for her terrific novel “The Ring,” about a young boxer: “Mardie Wolfe seems down for the count. This teen has troubles galore and doesn’t see the fans in her corner. The discipline of boxing brings her up from the canvas in Bobbie Pyron’s compelling novel, which is rich in detail and utterly convincing. All the characters ring true, and Mardie is especially vivid – smart, funny and honest as a straight left to the snot-locker.”
