[Keep sending the synopses, author-type people. It would be nice to see
the Lists getting up to the dream of listing all synopses for the week.
Please use the form provided, answer what you feel you can(name/email
addy/story name/summary are all that I need though, the rest of the
fields just help the readers out a lot.]
[Here is the easiest way to send your synopses, a blank synopsis form
to fill out. Remember, don't send these to the FFML, just to me, otherwise
it will create unwanted spam. Please be sure to have some sort of tag to
tell me that what you're sending is a synopsis ([Syn] is fine), lest your
summary get lost in the general hubbub of my mailbox.]
