Mari J Carpenter replied to Laura Robinett's discussion Glyptic By Laura Robinett in the group Synopsis Repair Shop"Overall- good story that I would love to see where these two characters move."
Laura Robinett replied to Laura Robinett's discussion Glyptic By Laura Robinett in the group Synopsis Repair Shop"Yeah, it's a little hard writing from a man's POV, since I'm not a man and all lol. I have scenes that over lap with them telling some things over again, but you get a entirely new POV, told with new information still telling the same…"
Mari J Carpenter replied to Laura Robinett's discussion Glyptic By Laura Robinett in the group Synopsis Repair Shop"I've always been told write what you know. Georgia gave me this advice, when writing in another POV, try to give their angle of the scene, men see things totally different than girls. This comes from my own personal experience.

Mari J Carpenter replied to Laura Robinett's discussion Glyptic By Laura Robinett in the group Synopsis Repair Shop"Still reading - had to reboot my computer, I have to tell I'm a sucker for for anything dark, which seems to be where your story teeters to. Careful on telling vs showing. I'm Soooooooo guilty of that. But I'd love to read…"
Laura Robinett replied to Laura Robinett's discussion Glyptic By Laura Robinett in the group Synopsis Repair Shop"Sure!
I'd like to know what you think of my first chapter as well. I know it has it's fair share of grammatical mistakes but I'm more interested in hearing what you think about the plot and such, if you want to read more and…"
Mari J Carpenter replied to Laura Robinett's discussion Glyptic By Laura Robinett in the group Synopsis Repair Shop"Thank you for sharing, I'll go right to it. Could you, if you have time, review my synopsis?"
Laura Robinett replied to Laura Robinett's discussion Glyptic By Laura Robinett in the group Synopsis Repair Shop"Thanks so much Laura and Mari! You both have been more than helpful.
If you'd like to read the first chapter I have it up on my website. It's not edited yet but you get the basic idea of the story with the first…"
Mari J Carpenter replied to Laura Robinett's discussion Glyptic By Laura Robinett in the group Synopsis Repair Shop"Laura, love this story
there are some editing areas I highlighed on the pdf I attached here for. I'd love to read more. And remember, synopsis needs to be in presence tense. One of my down falls when I write my synopsis. Also, agents like to…"

"Hi Laura!
I read your synopsis and thought the idea was very unusual and intriguing. Your 210 words are actually a blurb, the kind that goes in a query letter or on a jacket-cover, and not a synopsis. A synopsis is about 500-1500…"

I was just about to find your page so I could request you! lol
Do you have any interest in trading reads - for a critique or just basic feedback? I'm looking for new CPs, since my others have already read my book ... I only have one person left the story is new to, but she won't be able to get to it until later in January sometime (divorce..boo!)
If you do, just msg me and let me know. I just figured I'd ask b/c mine's kind of a darker urban fantasy about fae (that's how I spell it ;)) so you might like it...ttyl :D
