Good luck with that. My first novel(la) existed solely in hardcopy, which was really stupid of me, since now I can't find most of it. But it wasn't that good anyway, so I haven't lost too much sleep over it.
Oh, and I would be honored if you would allow me to read at least part of your 2nd draft.
As for the back cover blurb, do they actually let you write that part? I always assumed that was done by marketing. (At least, some of the crapy copy I've read on the backs of some otherwise great books have lead me to believe so.)
