This article by guest poster Romi Summer on Jami Gold’s site is one of the clearest synopsis-writing templates I’ve seen yet (thanks again to Chris the Story Reading Ape!). I especially like that it’s a primer on story structure as well. I don’t care if you do write Literary Stuff—if you don’t have these elements, you don’t have a story.
Give it a try and tell me what you think!

Thank you for linking that. It was very helpful. I absolutely loathe writing the synopsis.

Every writer I know hates it! Business opportunity for some intrepid soul: a synopsis-writing service. Maybe there already is one. I wonder what that would be like?? 😉
