I broke my finger and wrote the synopsis the night before surgery with one hand on pain killers. I still use that thing! Though, I wouldn't recommend the writing method.

Too funny! I tend to whine and carry on and have my CP fix the piece of crap! Also, Xanax.

TykeYes, reading too much advice can make things worse. I've learned to find one or two sources I trust and go from there. Thanks so much. Glad you enjoyed it!Sue AnnLOL, that's a good idea. What's the name of your book? Thanks for commenting!

Oh, so true! I'm thinking of writing a review (bias admitted) of my recently-published novel just so I can say on my blog what I didn't have room to say in the synopsis.

I've read a lot of advice on writing a synopsis. All of it has proved contradictory and even less use than a chocolate tea cosy (at least you can eat that) — so I rather enjoyed this refreshing take on the matter. Much appreciated!

DebraA good Merlot would work just fine. The smoother the better. Thanks for commenting!

Liquor is required to write a good synopsis? And rum and diet Coke? What about a good Merlot? Would that suffice? Because I have some of that handy already. Don’t want to waste a trip to ABC store if wine will work just fine 🙂 Whatever makes you frisky, right?
