Your 5-Step Synopsis Solution
(25 pg. tutorial and an optional mini-version)




Picture
The synopsis (like the query letter), is a deal maker or deal breaker. It can convince an agent that you're the real deal: a skillful writer with a saleable book.

Write it well and the agent will read it, then move on to read your sample pages (the goal all along).

Write it poorly and they'll take a latte break instead.

When I was an acquisitions editor, if a synopsis didn't tell me (immediately) what I needed to know, I'd stop reading and send it to delete-ville.
