Dreaded Synopsis

I don't know of many people who enjoy writing a synopsis - I certainly don't. However, I've discovered that  for me writing a synopsis (no matter how good or bad) is something I have to do as part of my plotting process.

So to find out I've finalled in Romance Writers of Australia's Selling Synopsis contest is a huge thrill. The entry is now in the hands of the finals judge (Emily Sylvan Kim, Prospect Agency).

Best of luck to the other finalists:  Marnie Griffith, Kylie Kaden, Cassandra Pennington, Ruth Sutcliffe and Christine Taylor.

Motivational Monday

 

Write down the thoughts of the moment. Those that come unsought for are commonly the most valuable.

Big Bang Theory Flash Mob

I am a huge fan of the show Big Bang Theory. It seems the actors on the show have a sense of fun away from their scripts as well. Watch the following flash mob that Kaley Cuoco (Penny in the show) organised and got her sister to choreograph. They sprang it on the audience during filming in November 2012 - and surprised showrunners Chuck Lorre, Bill Prady and Steve Molaro (if you're a fellow fan make sure you watch all the way to the end).
