Synopsis=Greek Word for Hell

Posted by on Mar 5, 2005 in dish | 1 comment I’m bad. I’m supposed to be writing the synopsis for book 2 at request of Dream Agent. Instead, I’m surfing, leaving pithy comments on other blogs, checking email, bidding on website software on eBay…basically, anything to keep from writing the synopsis.
