Seriously, I hate writing a synopsis...and generally whine endlessly during the whole ugly process! In this book I'm working on now, I just wrote a 10 page story idea, then my editor added her thoughts and now the book is turning out much different from the original idea. Rocki…LOL!

I shall send that right to New York. And a side comment to Deb Webb - I watched SATC with wine this weekend! I really, truly loved it. Thought it was true to the TV show (I was among the faithful) and yet had its own romantic story arc. Carrie B was kind of a dolt a few times in the movie, materialistic to the point of almost unredeemable. But that HEA was beautiful and had this Cinderella lover in tears. Excellent advice, Dear Jen. I shall send that right to New York.

I can write it for you. How's this? The book is about this dude and this chick. They like each other, but you know, stuff happens. Sometimes bloody stuff, and then, you know, someone dies. Probably not the dude or the chick, but someone else. And, like, the dude and the chick, they gotta find the killer or be killed. Soon. Like real soon. Oh and while the dude and the chick are looking for the killer, they get all excited and have sex. P.S. Hurry up and mail me my check so I can write the real book! Bonus Tip: You might want to mail a bottle wine, or a whole case, with the synopsis.... Dear Floundering in Florida,

I have to write a synopsis before the book is written. Who are they kidding? I don’t know what the book is about because, duh, it’s NOT WRITTEN. Any advice?

It's not just me! I always give my friends advice (that they ask for, btw) and they never take it!! I gave myself some advice Saturday night -- a bottle of wine and the Sex and the City movie.
