I spent all of last week doing my final read through and inputting those edits in. The query and synopsis came next. Doesn't take as much time because there aren't as many words.

I've grown fond of the two page synopsis. It really forces you to get to the nitty gritty of what happens in your book, but I'm willing to try the five page synopsis for this book since it meets the publishers submission requirements.
