So I hate writing synposes. I know this is hardly new news that a writer hates writing them, but damn they suck. They suck to write and I'll bet they suck to read. I know they're necessary, but for pete's sake, how the heck did such a thing evolve? I mean, god forbid we just tell people what the book is about, gmc and conclusion. No, it has to be written in first person, include tone, and be snappy to read. And be short. And have a tag line they can use when pitching the book. Pah. Grumble grumble. Barf.
Ok, I'm done being a big baby now. Just had to get that out. I can only hope that people don't hold it against a writer if their synopsis sux but their writing is good. In the meantime, I shall keep writing these danged things, do my best, and try to send them out without cringing. lol. Stupid synposes.
