Writing the Fiction Synopsis Most writers hate writing synopses, and no wonder. After you've agonized over several hundred pages to make your prose absolutely perfect, how could you possibly distill that down to a measly ten or twenty pages? Or, in some cases, one or two pages? Writing the Fiction Synopsis, takes the reader through a step-by-step process and explains what’s vitally important to put in the synopsis...and what you should leave out.

The Unauthorized Dan Brown Companion Though the book was edited by John Helfers, I wrote almost 90% of the book in the concordance, "An A-Z Look at the World of Dan Brown's Novels." It gave me the opportunity to research the facts in the first four of Dan Brown's books then write about them in the concordance. It was great fun and I learned a lot. I hope you will, too!
