Now you can have Elizabeth's widely-acclaimed Dreaded Synopsis workshop in book form. If you've always considered a synopsis akin to an untamable beast, here's the book that will show you how to turn it into a pussycat. Using her own synopsis, Elizabeth walks you through that hated process one step at a time, explaining the procedure and sharing some of her secrets for writing a synopsis that will catch any editor's eye.

 

Debra Dixon, award-winning author of GMC: Goal, Motivation and Conflict, says: "If you're serious about a publishing career, you need this book."

Susan Wiggs, best-selling, award-winning author of over twenty novels, says: "If you've never written a novel, or if you've written dozens of books, try this fresh, common sense approach to give your story shape, texture, and reader appeal."

Bonnie Crisalli, former Harlequin American/Intrigue editor, says: "As Elizabeth Sinclair's former editor, I was always impressed with her brief, yet remarkably thorough synopses. Now I know how she did it, and I'm even more impressed!"

Hilary Sares, Consulting Editor for Kensington Precious Gems, says: "Elizabeth Sinclair's new guide, THE DREADED SYNOPSIS, offers detailed, thorough, and funny instructions for every author who'd like to learn to write a synopsis that sells."
