You really should get a crit group, or in the present case, a fellow
writer to look at the synopsis. If it seems to suck, it's because you
have to take all the soul out of it to shrink all those words to five
pages. Agents know this.

I'm wrestling with thoughts regarding one of the manuscripts that I am
judging for the contest.

I am impressed by how well written this manuscript is. It's not only a
gripping story, but a multi-dimensional one which makes you stop and
chew over the issues that it raises. It's excellent from a mechanical
point of view: the author's use of imagery, foreshadowing, and
language in general is excellent. And, a couple of the characters are
going to live in my head forever.

Problem: it starts to get dark in the second half, and by the end
it's practically Hamlet, even though not everyone literally dies.
Things die, too, ideals, promise, hope, and such. No doubt about it,
it's a tragedy. In the chapter, we learn that the secondary
protagonist is dying, and in the closing paragraphs, the main
protagonist simply gives up and waits for death.

WOT?!!! I was flabbergasted. Then, again, I was already feeling
from the preceding collapse.

More later. (watch this space)

Looks like I'm going to lose my Emma Peal. High fever that is not
responding to antibioltics, & high glucose that is not responding to
insulin. Feline Leukemia is the culprit.

Feluk is an odd malady. Unlike human leukemia (as far as we know), it
is caused by a virus. She has lived well with the disease for ten
years, but when it strikes, it strikes suddenly.

--Rich Man,

He wants her to be able to say what she wants to say without being
rebuked in political fashion. That is just another typical liberal
example of sexual discrimination where women demand preferential
treatment because of gender.

I hate LIBERALISLAM.

I hope McCain doesn't come back and demand that we not talk about
Cindy's impressive rack. He might do, rino that he is.
