Ed Ireland (edireland) | 4 comments Hey all...
I need a ton of help. I wrote a new synopsis for my book. Imagine you are looking at it online and tell me if the synopsis would make you consider buying it. Here goes:

Vespias Firstlight is tenacious. In her savage world, that means that she has a chance. A chance to bury the pain and doubts of her past. A chance to beat back the undead horde that ravages her home. A chance to bring her people to safety and a chance at finding her elusive happiness. She is determined to win these battles, but at what price?
At some point you will wonder, how much can one heart endure?
Vespias is fighting the world around her as well as the one within. But, she has help. She has General Salaris Woodward to help her defeat the primal terror of the undead. She has the charming Bel to help win back her soul from her inner demons. And she has her strong-willed family for support.
Even with all this, her odds are lean. With every breath, with every hoof beat, failure increases and hope diminishes. Heartbreak and sorrow resume their quest to imprison her in their grasp. Her home is lost, her family scattered. Her soul begins its slow return to darkness. Her two worlds become a test of faith and strength and Vespias may find that her past holds the key to her future…

V.W. Singer | 43 comments Just my personal opinion and taste -

Too many emotion words and no indication of what makes the main character special or pivotal other than her being "tenacious", or what makes the situation an opportunity or disaster.
