*beats fists on floor*
There is a literary agency which I would like to query, in fact which I probably should have queried some time ago, but I haven't yet. Their submission guidelines call for a synopsis of 2 pages along with the query letter.
I am talking about Novel 1, here. I would have to come up with 2 pages of text to describe a book of over 300 pages, single spaced. I already have the mini-synopsis that I use in the query letter, and I have the long-form one that I've used for other agencies, and now they're calling for a 2-page format.
Just how many of these damned things will I have to write?!
Don't wanna! Don't wanna! Don't wanna! So of course I will.
The question is whether I'll get started on it today, while I have no work to do and am well-nourished from the Nooshi bento box on which I splurged for lunch today, or put it off for when I'm distracted, frayed and borderline-hypoglycemic.
Actually, a second cup of coffee is probably in order, too.
Oh, and as long as I'm here; this computer really needs a browser update, the post page looks like shit.
