I cringe at the thought of the day that Scarlett decides to collect on all of my debts, because I owe the woman BIG TIME. Today, I added to that rather large debt:
After two days of slaving over a piece-of-shit skeleton (sorry, "skellington") of my synopsis, she sent me the spit-shined, refined, less-than-1,000 word synopsis for Rules of Engagement. And it PWNS.
Seriously. Synopses are, by nature, boring and dry, but she manages to make THE FREAKING SYNOPSIS sound INTERESTING.
Between Brothers sold on the second try, with her synopsis at the helm. If Rules of Engagement sells, I'm probably going to owe her some sort of vital organ, if not my mortal soul. (Especially since she gave me the idea for both books, too...)

I felt drained after writing that, and it was only 947 words!
ReplyDeleteIt really is easier writing a 150k book. At least there are no word count restrictions to a novel. Well, there are, but they're much less strict than the rules for book proposals.
*deep breath*
Back to my own WIP now!
