I’m not good at writing summaries. Or blurbs. Or synopses. Whatever you want to call it.
I try to whip up a decent one for my blog and for my NaNo page every year. Obviously, I think it’s nice that other people know what I’m writing about. If anyone cares at all.
I usually come up with something good enough once I finish outlining. I wrote this summary before I finished outlining and I have to say that I don’t think it came out too bad. Of course, this is going to change once I finish writing the book anyway.
Still, I hope you think it sounds intriguing.
Paige Powers is just an average college student. She’s doing well in her classes, has a great friend in her dorm roommate, Meredith, and is graduating soon. All she has to do is survive one last semester and then she’s out in the real world.
It’s not until Meredith’s science teacher, Professor Hobbs, calls Paige to his office after hours one night. Curious, Paige meets his summons where she’s given a notebook. She’s told it’s special. She’s told she can do great things with the notebook. She’s told to use it wisely and to keep it a secret.
Paige keeps the notebook hidden, but not because Professor Hobbs told her to, but because she thinks he’s crazy.
She then discovers a hidden secret within the school’s library and sees magical quills writing on their own in various notebooks. Professor Hobbs explains they’re the quills of fate and Paige must help make sure everything is in order.
Does this have something to do with the notebook that was given to Paige? How is she supposed to tempt with fate? Because, as far as Paige knows, magic doesn’t exist… does it?
And that’s that. I hope it’ll turn out better than it sounds.
This will be a novella that I’m going to publish on my Wattpad page. This is expanding upon my Short Story Sunday series from August. If you haven’t read that, please go do so. If you like it, hopefully, you’ll want to read this once it’s on Wattpad!
