Not only is there a very wide range of quantity requested ("three to five paragraphs" or "one page" or "three pages" and so on), but there are a number of agents I've queried who in fact specify that all characters *must* be mentioned. I know this is a sure way to clunk-ifying a synopsis. And mine is clunked, because I've seen more guidelines instructing the inclusion of characters than not. Like a lot of neurotic pre-published authors - I obey like a spanked puppy.<br /><br />Then there is the reworking of the clunker for almost every single query, because of all those varying particulars in submission guidelines. It's a bit like the Biblical genealogies; "who really reads The Begats?" But The Begats are canon.<br /><br />Unless they're not!DLMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08768285199864217885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23051453.post-47742895255380416512014-12-04T19:54:12.834-05:002014-12-04T19:54:12.834-05:00Wow, great tips, and what a wonderful synopsis!Wow, great tips, and what a wonderful synopsis!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00549031685795756913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23051453.post-22953481768609147832014-12-04T16:59:27.253-05:002014-12-04T16:59:27.253-05:00I find writing a romance synopsis easier than a co...I find writing a romance synopsis easier than a cozy synopsis. The emotional arc for a romance is first and foremost, while in a cozy the murder is the primary arc. Yes, the protaganist does go through an emotional journey, but it's different to a romance. Would love any tips!!
