Plot Synopsis Project II

SFNovelists’ Joshua Palmatier has put together a great project for writers interested in learning more about how a plot synopsis looks by getting a bunch of folks to post synopses that have sold books. This is his second version of the project: Plot Synopsis Project II.

Paticipants include:

Joshua Palmatier

Alma Alexander (Will post on the 20th instead.)

Sam Butler

Diana Pharaoh Francis

Daryl Gregory

Simon Haynes

Jay Lake’s comments and his synopses

Joshua’s first Synopsis Project is here. I added a synopsis late, here.

Joshua’s Query Letter Project is here.

As an extra bit of content since I’m here, here are a couple of links to posts I’ve written on synopses: Pitching and Synopses parts 1, 2, and 3. Plus, what a synopsis should do.
