Writing a synopsis is the most difficult thing I have ever done. How do you cram a novel into a few pages without sucking the life out of the storyline? I found many references, examples, books and suggestions, but to tell you the truth, I had to simply sit my butt down and do it my own way. I went through my novel, jotting a sentence or two about the gist of each chapter. Next, I jotted down the main plot, conflicts, and characters. Then, came the hard part... making it all make sense. Hours blended into days, optimism swept into despair, but I kept rewriting and polishing. My editor helped buff it to a shine.
Well, with feedback from fellow authors, my fantastic editor and loads of coffee, it is finished.
Now for the agent hunt ...
