Hi
Is there any advice on layout of the one pager?
Single lined, double lined?
I am treating it as a query letter/tiny synopsis - single lined.

And is it bad if I am happy with writing only 1/2 a page, rather
than filling it?

Not too important. Double spacing leaves room for comments.
And half a page of good writing is far better than any amount of
waffle!

Does the one page 'intro about your book' include spoilers? It's a
synopsis rather than a jacket blurb, right?
Thanks for any info.

I went for a 'flavour' – a bit of both, but I've no idea if that's
the right approach, Jenny.

Thanks John. (I know I'm late doing it but I'm one of the 'out of
the EU' people so I am allowed to email it.)

Hi Jenny
I've gone for the short synopsis approach with mine (including
spoilers).
Good luck with yours,
Stephy x

Hi Stephy, thank you. I'm afraid I've gone for a horrible mess -
eeek. I shall attempt to sort it out before it's emailed but this
is not a trick I've mastered yet. What on earth to leave out?

If you go into the group finish the damn book (I think it's on page
four in the group tab - to save you searching forever) you can see
Stephy and ours attempts at sorting ours out it may give you some
help. I'm sure you'll sort it Jenny.
