Summaries

A good summary means more readers. It should be short, to the point and entice a potential reader into clicking on your story. In order for your story to be accepted to the Teaspoon, your summary must adhere to the following rules:

- keep it short. No more than a couple of sentences, a paragraph at most.
- acknowledgements/disclaimers/dedications and so on should be put in the Author's Notes section.
- do not beg for reviews.
- there should be no spelling errors; it's only a couple of sentences. Use a capital letter at the beginning of each sentence and a full stop at the end.
- keep it about the story. Sugar, daydreams and other such inspirations, if they must be mentioned, should be kept to the Author's Notes.
