BAH. Frelling synopses.
OMG, I'm right there with you. I'm literally doing my synopsis of Cog right now. I'm pretty sure the first pass will be a fail, but getting that first attempt done will hopefully break the ice.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

From Madame Agent re: the Synopsis From Hell:
"You done got yourself into a pickle, Miss Barb-- this is a Big Book. And a series."

Because books.
Which one is this?
And hey, are you coming tomorrow? And to hang out after?

“Not dead yet!”
This is for Haunted, the ghost YA, which has turned into Something More.
And yes, definitely coming tomorrow and presumably hanging out after-- have any definitive plans been made?

Just going back to the hotel. I'm going to be too exhausted for much else, I think. Hanging, chatting, possibly drinking a little, snacking.

Er, yep-- I just went back and checked in F2F and saw that was the plan. ::headdesk:: This is what happens when I get all head down and slightly craxy synopsis rewriting.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Have fun, wimmin! I'll be there in spirit(s) -- raise a glass for yourselves, and imagine I'm there clinking with you!

Workshop excellent. Head boom. Out of verbs.
