Working on a critique of the dreaded synopsis

My dear friend Dave asked me to do a critique of his synopsis. (Yes, Dave I am working on it when I get a chance to.) I am doing it, but I am doing it line by line. Not sure if this will make him happy or ready to kill me.

There’s nothing a writer hates more than writing a synopsis. This is where we are all at our most insecure. Ask any writer about doing a synopsis and you’ll see fear, dread, and horror dash across his/her face.

A professional (and good) synopsis writer could very well make a fortune. Too bad there aren’t any out there.

Oh Dave, Give me a few more days. I hope to have it done by then. Things were a bit hectic around here as usual.

And now we have rain…

As the temperature drops to 24 degrees overnight that rain will turn into snow. AGAIN.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO more!

Stop snowing

Die winter

 

Sun made ice….

It is said that if you send off your desires into the universe they will happen. Beach. I am working on that idea these days. Beach.

We had a lot of sun yesterday but with temperatures in the thirties it didn’t do much in the way of melting the new snow on top pf the old snow on top of the icy remains of the even older snow. Beach.

No, all that melting did nothing, other than make more ice on top of the new snow. Beach

More snow predicted for today. Oh. Joy. Beach.

Would you believe it? More. Snow.

I woke up to find it snowing like crazy. Again. OMG. We have had more than enough.

Depressed? You bet!

Once the weather breaks, I won’t want to be inside for more than a minute or two at a time. If I disappear once we get decent weather, too bad guys. I am in dire need of outdoor therapy I have been far too closed in all winter.

Stop snowing

We’ve had quite enough winter thank you very much.

Bone chilling 16 degrees. This winter is killing me. One piece at a time, it is killing me. At least we had sun yesterday. Unfortunately today we’re supposed to have snow. Again. Two times this coming week.

The rain and 45 degrees predicted for Wednesday almost sounds tropical after this stuff.

I saw a robin again, this is the only thing that gives me the hope that Spring is on the way.

Is it awful that all I can think about is a warm and sunny beach?

rescued wineI think I’ll wear this shirt today.

You all have a good one.
