Novels are easy... Synopses are hard!
'Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.'
Thus quoth some dude named Gene Fowler. I have always chuckled at this, as I am one of those awful people who usually find writing a fairly easy process in itself. Though I suppose that notion won't seem to fit with my frequent crises of confidence about this novel.
Anyway, I take it all back. At least when it comes to writing a synopsis for this novel. OMFG it's hard! I have been forcing myself to do it in bits and pieces over the past week, and haven't gotten very far at all. And, you know, there's no pressure at all, oh, no... cos the synopsis is only what sells the novel. That's all! Argh!
OK, even this post is a way of putting off tackling it again... Hope to see you all again on the other side!
