Synopsis Question
Posted: Mon Oct 03, 2011 9:46 am
Hi there,
With only 500ish words, I'm wondering if this synopsis is supposed to read more like a query letter (grab your attention, leave some things undisclosed, snappy writing style), or more like a literal synopsis/book report (laundry list of plot facts). I am afraid you're going to say "somewhere in the middle", which will be difficult...
Just wanted to find out more of what you guys will be looking for in the synopsis. Do you want to be wowed, or do you want to know everything that's going to happen in the book?
Many thanks,
MM
