Done

Okay. This is it. Other than a few tweaks, I think I have a blow-by-blow synopsis that is neither expansive nor boring. Unfortunately, there are too many plot spoilers for me to detail it here.

Anyone who wants to give it a looksee, let me know. Any volunteers would be greatly appreciated, and I am offering payment either in the form of a free book of your choice from my store or reciprocal readings of your query, synopsis, outline, or writing.

The new synopsis is just under 5 pages or 1549 words. Should be a breeze, but I can't look at it any more and remain objective.

Any takers?

I don't mind looking at it for you. No payment is necessary.

Congrats on expanding it; one I get mine compressed to one page, I have a hard time decompressing it.

I would like to read it. (Finally finished CoMC and can now move on to other things).

Is this a synopsis for an agent? or yourself? The reason I ask is that at least over here they only want one or at most two pages double spaced....I have just slashed one of my to get it down to size........

Will gladly have a read and no payment is necessary........

It's for a publisher, Liz. Their guidelines ask for a 3-10 page synopsis. Right now, it's about 5 pages double spaced, or 3 single. I'll tweak in some of the suggestions from other readers and shoot it over to you sometime today. Thanks. =o)
