I read something that said to make it a short story version of your novel, that it needs to have all those components you listed and be compelling.<br /><br />Good luck with the A to Z Challenge!Shannon Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934641808195675935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633585358542564797.post-39886988022784252292011-03-11T13:37:00.728-08:002011-03-11T13:37:00.728-08:00@Lydia K I totally agree with the needles bit.

I really had to force myself to do it. <br /><br />@Amie Kaufman I really want to have my blog be as useful as so many great ones I have found, including yours!<br /><br />@nutshell Thanks for the book recommendation. I think that is what belonging to the writing community is all about.

I'm in the whole querying stage now and I know this synopsis post is going to be very useful. Have you heard of Pam McCutcheon's Writing the Fiction Synopsis? It's the only book I've found that focuses solely on how to write a synopsis and it's so helpful!nutschellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10967710710805174781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633585358542564797.post-34212841190558032142011-03-10T03:21:10.218-08:002011-03-10T03:21:10.218-08:00I know I'm going to have to do it sooner or la...I know I'm going to have to do it sooner or later, but I must admit I haven't been looking forward to the synopsis much at all!

AND I'm really bad at writing them, so any help I can get is a good thing.<br /><br />Nice to meet you, and thanks for stopping by my blog!Lydia Kanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00484415427764822386noreply@blogger.com
