&lt;div class="asl-wikipage-summary"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Finishing a book manuscript is not the end of the writing work required if wanting to get traditionally published. Besides query letters, marketing content, and other materials, a book synopsis is often a necessary part of an author&amp;rsquo;s submission package. Elle E. Ire, author and educator genuinely enjoys writing one-page queries, which most writers find very challenging. It&amp;rsquo;s far more difficult for her to write a book synopsis, which puts the entire book into a document that can be as short as a page or as long as six or seven pages. The length depends on what you&amp;rsquo;re writing the synopsis for. In a query letter, you&amp;rsquo;re not sharing an entire plot, but in a synopsis you&amp;rsquo;re sharing a beginning, a middle, and an ending. Ire recommends reading the book &lt;em&gt;The Dreaded Synopsis&lt;/em&gt; by Elizabeth Sinclair in order to understand the structure of, and the content necessary for a synopsis. Listen to the clip below to learn more about the purpose of a synopsis and the best way to use your synopsis.&lt;/p&gt;
