Contests and synopsis update

As promised, I just announced a contest over on my Yahoo Group fan club, Raine's Rangers. If you want to enter, see that purple button to the right? Just click and join Raine's Rangers.

I'm getting some great entries for the Name That Book contest. Remember the deadline is this Friday, and I'll be annoucing the winner on Saturday.

I emailed my FINISHED plot synopsis for Book 5 to my agent for her feedback on Saturday morning. It turned out a little longer than I'd planned (14 paged double-spaced, I was going for half that), but I'm sure Kristin will have some great suggestions. And for those of you who are wondering, a plot synop can be that long, IF it's necessary to tell your story, not everything in your book, just the CORE story. As you all know, my plots tend to be a little on the complicated side, so as a result, my book has a big core.

Tomorrow, I'll answer a writing question from Tia.

Thank you, ladies! It is a load off. Now I'm working on the synop for Book 6. I'm hoping it goes faster than Book 5.
