Gristle

Well, I wrote a meaty synopsis yesterday…

Let that sentence sit in your mind a moment.

Let it fester.

When one is trying to craft a 500 word synopsis for a 95k word novel, “meaty” is the last word you 
want attached to it. (At last cringing count, my summary was hovering at the 1k mark.)

So, beyond sending out my first query letter in an eternity today, I will be picking chunks of gristle and fat from a synopsis that needs to be sent out attached to another query letter tomorrow…

Pardon me. I think I just threw up in my mouth.

Until tomorrow…
