Being a Tease

The only thing harder than writing a novel is writing the synopsis. I HATE writing my own synopsis! So when my writer friend tells me that she's trying to do one for her own book, I get tremendous sympathy pains. The funny thing is, coming up with a synopsis for someone else's novel is fun and easy. The moment she mentioned what she was doing and which work it was for (one I already Beta'd), I summed it up in 2 lines. I'm very proud of myself. 

The catch is: I can't give it to her. I totally understand. When it's your work, it's your baby, and you want to believe that you can handle anything/everything that it needs. Been there, done that, will probably keep being there and doing that for the rest of my life, because, let's face it, I'm stubborn.

Nevertheless, I'm still very proud of myself for my contribution, even if it isn't an actual contribution because she won't read it. CAITLIN, IF YOU DON'T WANT IT, DON'T READ ANY FURTHER!!!!
I'M WARNING YOU!!! STOP! 
I see you reading!!! 
Are you sure?
Are you very very sure?
You HAVE been warned. 

She's still reading...

As I was saying, I was feeling really proud of myself and since I probably can't do anything with it, I'll post it here so I can "ooo" and "ahh" at my clever quick thinking. And even if she doesn't like it and has no intention of going in this direction, I just gave her a free plug to get you interested in her up-coming novel. I see no downside.

BAHAHAHA! I totally lost it! All of this and I can't find it!
Oh wait. Found it. I thought I saved it as "blurb" but apparently I saved it as "blub."

So here it is, the "blub" for secret Perry novel: 
In a world were humans are regaining independence from years of slavery to demonic possession, a unique force of bonded humans and demons arm themselves for a fight against an evil force led by a villainous genius known only as “The Madder Scientist.” For Kanna and Shade, their unique bond proves to be just what the Possessions Agency needs, but the power of the bond between them may also be their greatest weakness.
