Update: synopsis is done

And I have totally forgotten how to write a proposal cover letter. I mean totally. The cover letters for my last seven books have been:

Hey (Angie or Bree),

Here’s (title of book). Hope it doesn’t suck.

Shan

So while cleaning my neglected upstairs (which is dumb because it’s not like we entertain company up there, dammit), I’ve been composing said cover letter in my head. After an hour or so, I have:

Dear (NY editor):

…Umm…

:bang:

    Here’s (title of book). Hope it doesn’t suck. :lmao: If you can sell a book based on that (and I’m guessing you have!) then you are a brilliant!

    I wish! :rofl:

    That particular note usually accompanies the book. This particular “Dear NY Editor” note will be accompanying a partial.

    I’m still stuck on “umm”, btw.

    :write:

    They’re on the old desktop, which is in pieces in the train room. I don’t actually have one on the laptop.

    Still on umm….though it’s coming back to me.
