You're very welcome. Your comments helped me quite a bit. I'm sorry about your father. I can't imagine losing my parents and yet it looms over me every day. Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks for the mention, Stacy! Glad to help. I'm one of the weirdos who actually likes to write synopses, lol. And I'm sorry for your loss. My Dad died this spring and it is definitely hard to slap on your happy marketing face (needed to write the synopsis) while in shock and grief. Give yourself some time.

Yes, it is. Really? I wish I would have taken it. I'm sure Jen had a lot of great info.Learning what does and doesn't work is a good thing. I think as long as you're moving forward you're find.Thanks!

Sorry for your loss. Hard to say goodbye to people who made a difference in your life.As to synopsis, I loved Jen Talty's class about synopsis writing. It was very clear and gave me an outline from which to work.My ROW80 is weird this time. I think I'm about to change my goals yet again. I'm learning what does and doesn't work, however, so that's good. Sounds like you're doing great! Keep it up!

KellyThanks so much. Yes, it's an awful reminder of what's to come for me. I hope I do. Working hard it on it. We'll see how it goes. Still somewhat leery about traditional pubbing. Great job on getting halfway through and hope you continue to enjoy it. Thanks for commenting!
