syno or not
I did another Micro 100. Why? Because dark was the main theme on everyones entry so I thought to put in a short sweeter piece. http://crabbycows.blogspot.com/2006/06/micro-100-entry-number-18.html
I got my US stamps yesterday (wahoo) So I can send out to more agents of my paranormal. So I'm finally moving forward with that one. Also, Ive noticed that some agents don't request synos. The dreaded synos. I personally think it's a good thing so that they can go in reading a book as a reader rather than knowing how it gets to the ending *then* reading it. I think it takes away from the story to read a syno. But then, it is industry and some are moving on to just a partial or just a full. I love it!
But if you're wondering about synos you might want to check out Romance Divas. They're having a synopsis competition (entries close 17th) but if you miss cut off still check it out - you can learn alot by judging!

Good luck with your agent hunting. I hate doing a synopsis - it's always good to find an agent who doesn't want one! Actually, writing blurbs comes a close second but I can never get out of writing those!
Synopsis' suck! I'm glad some agents don't want them now. Good luck with the requests you have out! And good luck with the 100 word thing!
Ooooh... Be vewwy vewwy quiet. Jodici is hunting agents. *insert Elmer Fudd's laugh* Good luck, chica!
Good luck with the agent hunt! I'm doing the same and it's an uphill battle sometimes. I hate synos too - I'm much better at blurbs and cover letters.
BTW - I just saw your book with NCP is scheduled for print release! Congrats! That's fabulous.
