The READING and WRITING unit we are currently in for the next 3 weeks is a review of the reading and writing units covered thus far in fourth grade. This unit allows the children to read various genres and answer higher-level thinking questions about the text. It requires the children to go back to the text to uncover the answers and incorporate text evidence to support their answers using evidence-based terms. They will indulge in literary analysis which requires the children to compare and contrast two texts, research simulation which is when the children are encouraged to read texts and acquire information from other sources like videos to gather information and answer higher-level questions, and narrative tasks which involves using all of the knowledge they learned during one of the very first units covered including characters, setting, plot, theme, point of view, etc. to complete tasks. This unit is the perfect way to ensure lifelong knowledge of the topics covered this year. It is also the perfect way to prepare my students for the upcoming state test-the PARCC-which will have the children completing similar tasks.
In this integrated SOCIAL STUDIES unit, we will be investigating The American Revolution. Students will learn how historians investigate the past, what events happened that led to the Revolutionary War, who the leaders/groups were that influenced the creation of NJ, the perspectives of relationships between the colonists and Britain, the importance of the Declaration of Ind. and why it was created, key battles that were fought in NJ, and why NJ is considered the Crossroads of the Revolution.
Students will learn different historical skills within our integrated unit. They will analyze documents and photographs and use evidence to form ideas (theories) about different conflicts. They will practice predicting and inferring to draw conclusions based on different modalities. Students will learn how perspective informs people's responses, choices and motivation. Also, they will learn how American Identity changes over time. Lastly, students will make real world connections using evidence and analyzing text.

Top business leaders today warned David Cameron to end the "dither" over a new runway or risk serious damage to London's future success.
The warning shot comes ahead of the long-awaited report of the Airports Commission on Wednesday, amid speculation it will favour expansion at Heathrow but be inconclusive.
The businessmen, who include Seb James, chief executive of electronic retailer Dixons Carphone, Sir George Iacobescu, chairman and chief executive of Canary Wharf Group, Sir Martin Sorrell, chief executive of WPP, Nick Wilson, the chairman of London-listed Qatar Investment Fund, said the country's aviation infrastructure was already creaking under strain, and it could not afford further political foot-dragging over the location of a new runway.
Sir George urged the Prime Minister to "grasp the moment" and commit to a swift decision. He told the Evening Standard: "In the last Parliament the Government showed bold and decisive leadership in pressing ahead with HS2 in spite of the political challenges, in this Parliament we now need that same style of political leadership applied to modernising our airport infrastructure."
Mr Wilson said international businesses could work with either Heathrow or Gatwick, providing whichever was chosen had the fast transport links they needed. He said it was "striking how far the UK's airport infrastructure has fallen behind" other regions like the Gulf and urged: "The argument has gone on far too long, now is the time to get on with upgrading London's airport resource."
Sir Martin, a supporter of aviation lobby group Let Britain Fly, called for "bold political leadership". He said Paris already had 50 per cent more flights to China than London because of its bigger capacity.
The commission, headed by Sir Howard Davies, has spent three years weighing up the runway decision but there are fears that its report will be fudged.
The five-member panel has already shortlisted three plans: a new Gatwick runway, a new Heathrow runway, or an extension to an existing Heathrow runway.
But five Conservative cabinet ministers are known opponents to Heathrow - Theresa May, Phillip Hammond, Greg Hands, Justine Greening and Theresa Villiers - while big name opponents include Boris Johnson and Zac Goldsmith.
Richard Dilks, director of transport policy at business group London First, said: "Once the Commission reports we need the Government to make a swift and positive decision on where the new runway should go."
What the business leaders had to say
Sir George Iacobescu
Chairman and Chief Executive, Canary Wharf Group.
"Once the Airports Commission publishes its Final Report, I would urge the Prime Minister to grasp the moment and commit to making a swift decision.
"With Heathrow, our only international hub airport, full for a decade, Gatwick already full at peak times and completely full by 2020 and with all of London's airports forecast to be full by 2030, we simply cannot afford any further dither and delay.
"After almost three years debating the issue in a Commission, the Government must now listen to the experts and get on with it."
Ian Hawksworth
Chief executive, Capital and Counties:
"It's essential that London retains its position as a global city. A swift decision on airport expansion is urgently needed followed by a rapid implementation of construction."
Sir Martin Sorrell
Chief Executive, WPP
"A decision to build a new runway should have been taken years ago. Our international rivals will not wait while we catch up. Amsterdam has six runways, while Frankfurt and Paris each have four. Here in London Heathrow has only two runways and Gatwick just one.
"As a result Paris for example has 50% more flights to China. So after years of extensive discussion once the Commission gives its final verdict, the Government must hit the ground running and give the green-light to a new runway as quickly as possible, but it will take bold political leadership."
Nick Wilson
Chairman, Qatar Investment Fund plc:
"I travel regularly across the Gulf, middle east and Europe. It is striking how far the UK's airport infrastructure has fallen behind. The argument has gone on far too long, now is the time to get on with upgrading London's airport resource.
"The international business community that uses London as a base can work with a properly upgraded Heathrow or Gatwick, but whichever is chosen the airport lives or dies on the quality of transport links into the city."
Sebastian James
Chief Executive, Dixons Carphone
"I think that speed and certainty are the friend of any business so a quick decision would be good. Not least because we are clearly in favour of generating more passenger traffic, tourism and business in the UK as soon as possible!"
Simon Walker
Director Genera, Institute of Directors.
"Politicians have sat on their hands for too long already. While it may be tempting to kick this difficult decision into the long grass, businesses are crying out for action. Demand for air travel is only going one way, and further delays will heap even more frustration onto companies who have witnessed nearly a decade of indecision.
"The government likes to talk up its plans to boost exports and help companies enter new markets. But if travelling around the world becomes harder and more expensive, businesses could be cut off from emerging economies and Britain will quickly fall behind its international competitors."
Gordon Clark
UK country manager, Global Blue
"As the world's leading provider of tax free shopping, we have seen the importance of retail tourism soar over the past decade, now recognised as a significant contributor to the UK's retail, leisure and hospitality sectors.
"But what if these travellers can't land here and decide to visit another country in Europe and spend their money. This is what will happen if the UK Government doesn't act now and build new runways in the London area and ensure we retain our competitive edge over European cities."
Nick Barton
CEO, Luton Airport
"The issue of where to build a new runway needs to be resolved swiftly. But any new runway will not by itself solve London's capacity constraints. An integrated transport plan, focused particularly on rail connections, is vital if we are to deliver additional capacity the UK so vitally needs."
Saad Hammad
CEO, Flybe
"Whatever the recommendation, the South-East urgently needs additional runway capacity - and we just hope and pray the Government then gets on with job to improve the air connections between the regions and London."
Jace Tyrrell
Deputy chief executive, New West End Company.
"International shoppers spend over £1bn in the West End every year. To maintain our global position it is imperative London has more airport capacity. The Government must implement the Commission's findings and not delay another decade as future jobs and our economy will suffer."Reuse content

Alan, I like what you have done. I'll look at comparing the stdout output as part of ctest. A couple of other examples also produce this, so it would be worth checking. There will be slight complications with the -V option and with the output from plgfnam, but I think we can work round that with judicious use of stderr for this. It's a slight fudge, but The stdout test would also be complicated if you used the -V option or printed out the file name from plgfnam, since these will differ between languages. One further thing - I would save / restore the familying settings well as the page settings otherwise you end up with file names like x31p10.psc rather than x31p.psc in the plplot_test directory. This messes up the compare tests. Actually, plsfam must be called before plinit so we can't easily test this across plinit. I suppose we could test turning off familying. We only produce 1 blank page so we don't need it and this would ensure the postscript file names were ok for ctest to check. I've implemented this in the python version. Andrew

Video: Utah trooper sideswiped by semi-truck
Utah trooper was inside his patrol car finishing the paperwork on a traffic stop, when a massive truck slammed into the side of his vehicle
By Amy Nay
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — Utah Trooper James Wright was inside his patrol car just after 6 a.m., finishing the paperwork on a traffic stop, when the massive truck slammed into the side of his vehicle.
Utah Highway Patrol Lieutenant Rich Christianson says Trooper Wright was shaken up, but uninjured, and described looking up and seeing the semi just inches from his face. He says they realize this is a risk they take in this line of work, but it's unusual for the close call to happen twice in just ten weeks.
Lehi police were called in to investigate and administered a field sobriety test. Half way through the test, the driver identified as Steven Sturgis Bill, 49, allegedly took off running and was tackled by officers. Bill, from the Las Vegas area, is now behind bars in the Utah County jail and is facing a number of charges including DUI, drug possession, resisting arrest and traffic violations.

You could have a couple of problems going on, first check the codes, it might give you a place to start, if no codes then check the cold start injector and the sensor, as these seem to cause the biggest problem, next test your fuel pressure and flow, if it reading is low test for full battery voltage at the fuel pump before replacing the pump, then there is the vane air flow assembly, sometimes the door gets cruddy and won't open quite far enough to turn on the fuel pump while cranking, If you haven't found your trouble by now then it could be an ohms problem in the fuel injection circuit, maybe bad injectors, but ohm them first. Of course there is always the possibility of bad wiring in a rig this old, so look around under the hood.
Try this, turn the ignition on but don't try to start it. Count to 5. Turn the ignition off. Repeat. Now try to start it. If it starts right up the fuel system is losing pressure. This can be a bad check valve (if equipped) or a dying fuel pump. HTH. -Jim

Broke them in with fresh ceramic pads. I installed these a couple weeks ago and so far, so good. There is a little more grab when I brake hard, but I'm still feeling soft although it's probably just the worn out rear pads and rotors. Overall no complaints, holes matched up perfectly, I hope they last me a long time.

It was supposed to be a battle between the league's top two MVP candidates and a preview of a potential 2nd round playoff match up.

As a college student and revert in America, I had not yet found the strength to wear Hijab full time. However, whenever I went into town where I would not see people I knew, I would wear my hijab to practice and get used to it. The Muslim community in my town is fairly large, so seeing a woman in hijab was not really that unordinary. Nobody ever gave me a hard time for wearing it.
One time flying home from school, I decided why not wear my hijab? As a white woman, I had flown many times before with no problems. However, I knew right away that they were treating me differently. TSA gave me a full body pat down (a woman officer did the pat down), and had to run tests on my laptop.
On the plane, I usually chat with my seat mates, but the man next to me tried very hard not to make eye contact with me and was very short with me when I asked him in a friendly manner how he was doing and where he was going. A child sitting across the isle from me even looked scared of me when I tried to smile at him. Children usually love me, and I tend to get along with them very well, so this was extremely unusual.
I wanted to tell these people: I am an American, just like you! Just because I choose to wear a scarf on my head doesn't make me a terrorist.
Overall, a very eye opening Hijab experience. I hope the American people can see as a whole how beautiful and peaceful the religion of Islam truly is. Insha'ALLAH (God-Willing) I will be able to wear Hijab full time one day soon.Comment

This "Historically Speaking" column appeared in the Exeter News-Letter on October 15, 2010.
by Barbara Rimkunas
The Exeter Historical Society and American Independence Museum recently hosted a field trip of over 100 students from the Cooperative Middle School. As we put them through their paces; writing with quill pens, identifying map features, transcribing impossibly hard documents and analyzing features of puzzling artifacts, the day was a reminder of the value of field trips. They're not some new idea invented by helicopter parents who want to give their kids an 'enrichment' experience. Field trips have been around a long time.
In 1914, the Exeter News-Letter reported that "Miss Elizabeth H. Baker last Friday took her Seminary Class to Salem, Mass., to inspect places of historic interest. This was her 18th trip." Although she wasn't an English teacher, perhaps the Salem trip was meant to counter the prevailing opinion then (as now) that some of the classroom reading was a tad dull. "We are reading House of Seven Gables," Seminary student Louise Tyler wrote in her diary in 1910, "I hate it."
Young Helen Tufts recorded the same exciting excursion in her diary, "My class went to Salem on special car. Ate lunch on the train! Visited all sorts of historical places. Got back at 5:30." Considering she didn't mention which 'historical places' she visited, it's easy to conclude that the trip's highlight was lunch.
Maybe a better strategy was to give the students an actual assignment while on a field trip instead of a vague 'inspect places of historic interest.' The first and second year students took Nature Study as their science class. Every fall, they'd head out into the wilds of nature to take notes and study the flora and fauna of New Hampshire. Emma Kimball kept her school notebook and it now belongs to the Exeter Historical Society. In penmanship that is enviable in an 11-year old, she wrote notes about the "cricked" and "muscrates." "Crickeds," she wrote, have "feelers longer than the whole body." Her teacher, Miss Maud Jewell, who's dual teaching roles of nature study and penmanship (Palmer Method) may account for the quality of Emma's notebook, encouraged the girls to get outside. Emma had a list of "Things to do in the Fall," which included: "Learn to stand still; Go in every variety of weather; Don't expect to find all the animals in a row; Use your ears and your eyes; Go raccooning; Go cacooning"
After being prepped in this style, the girls went on a Saturday afternoon field trip to Fort Rock Farm. Starting at the Seminary on Lincoln Street at 10:30, they headed north towards Forest Street and there enjoyed some fresh water from the jailhouse spring. "The water here was refreshing and after filling our bottles and cans we prepared for a long march into the woods ." They reached Fort Rock at noon and, after a quick lunch, went on to the ledges - a granite outcropping with a pool of water below. Although some of the girls went climbing, others stuck to the task at hand, "They used the nets for dredging the pool and found many interesting (things). While some of us finished our lunch, the girls were bringing us tadpoles, polliwogs, frogs, common leeches, back swimmers and American newts, - these last are easily confounded with lizards, but they had so smooth a skin, we could readily see they differed from the scale-covered lizard." They captured a garter snake and Emma noted, "The girls of our class did not scream and run at the sight of a snake – for that is unreasonable."
The following year, the class ventured to Hampton Beach on the streetcar on a Tuesday. "The weather was lovely, although it was the coldest September 29th that had been known in thirty-one years," Emma wrote. They scoured the beach for specimens finding sea urchins, starfish and sand dollars in great abundance. But it was the crabs that the girls found most intriguing. "At first we could scarcely tell where the head was, but we noticed the position of the eyes and that settled the question. Walking, as they do, forward, backward, and even sideways with equal ease, it seems as if they, too, might be slightly puzzled about their formation, and so, not stopping to decide which part is intended to go foremost, they dart off on a venture, and in the oddest manner possible."
Emma's observations make us realize how important field trips can be. They get you out of the classroom for a while and perhaps out of one's comfort zone. Field trips can make you brave even when you're a little scared, whether it's a slithery snake or a crazy historical society curator wielding an 1812 musket with full bayonet attached. The experience itself links together the sights, smells and textures of a different place – different from a classroom or computer screen – and that, in itself, is the value of a field trip. Even if the best part is lunch.


text: I put forward on the Gurkha thread the suggestion that we try to get all attendees, at the 2009 Remembrance Sunday at the Cenotaph, to about face and turn their back on the Prime Minister (or his representative if he is absent) as he goes to lay his wreath. The advantage of doing this will be that the press and TV will be present to record this very dignified protest and should ensure maximum coverage and show how we all feel about this Government's decision to refuse justice to our brother soldiers in the Gurkhas once again. My personal opinion is that those who died in conflict and whom we are there to honour would agree with our actions were they able to say so. I feel that we honour their memory best by ensuring that this scurrilous breech of faith is protested in a manner which befits the quiet dignity and honour that each and every Gurkha soldier has brought to his service in the British Army. Please feel free to add your own thoughts and comments. Thank you

The Barton Swing Aqueduct is a moveable navigable aqueduct in Barton upon Irwell in Greater Manchester, England. It carries the Bridgewater Canal across the Manchester Ship Canal. The swinging action allows large vessels using the ship canal to pass underneath and smaller narrowboats to cross over the top. The aqueduct, the first and only swing aqueduct in the world, is a Grade II* listed building, considered a major feat of Victorian civil engineering. Designed by Sir Edward Leader Williams and built by Andrew Handyside and Company of Derby, the swing bridge opened in 1894 and remains in regular use.

The Barton Aqueduct, opened on 17 July 1761, carried the Bridgewater Canal over the River Irwell at Barton-upon-Irwell in Greater Manchester, England. Designed largely by James Brindley under the direction of John Gilbert, it was the first navigable aqueduct to be built in England, "one of the seven wonders of the canal age" according to industrial archaeologist Mike Nevell.

Some people are drawn to a career even if they may not have considered it as an option early on.
Celina Corona is such an individual. Originally, Corona said she wanted to be a stenographer but she is now considering other options thanks to her internship with Sedalia FIT (Forty-hour Internship Training).
Corona recently spent a week at the Pettis County Early Childhood Cooperative working with and observing the work required in helping 3- and 4-year-old children with special needs.
"I really liked working with the little children," Corona said. "I like to watch them grow and learn how to accomplish different things.
"Being here the past few days has helped me learn too, especially how to interact with kids better," Corona added.
According to the three staff members Corona worked with, classroom teachers Ashley Avis, Shelby McConnell and para-professional Rachel Samson, Corona is a natural in helping young children.
"I could go on all day about the good job Celina has done since she has been here," Avis said. "I think one of the things that impressed me the most about her is that she was willing to get on the students' level to work with them.
"She physically interacted with them and spoke to them on their level," she added. "Celina is fluent in Spanish and the students looked to her to help translate."
Samson said one of the things she appreciated and noticed in Corona was the tremendous amount of patience she had while working with the students.
"Celina has such patience," Samson said. "She takes the time to really listen to the students and she tries to understand them and help them in any way she can."
Co-op Principal Grace Kendrick took note of Corona's patience and efforts during her stay at the school.
"We are always looking for positive role models to work with our students and Celina has such a positive personality and there are always opportunities here for people like Celina," Kendrick said. "We are excited about attracting teachers and paras from within our district to work here and the FIT program is a way for students to see some of the work that we do."
For Corona, working with the teachers and staff was a rewarding experience.
"The ladies here have such a strong team and they work well together," Corona said. "It's been exciting to watch them.
"At first I wanted to go into another field but after my interview with Mr. (Ed) Watkins and Mrs. (Betty) Hopkins they suggested that I try my internship here and I said I'd go," she added. "I really like what I have done and I am really thinking about going into the field in the future."
McConnell said she thinks teaching would be a perfect fit for Corona.
"From day one she helped with everything," McConnell said. "I think this program is a great one because it teaches the students responsibility and it helps them see some of the benefits they may not realize now but will need in the long run.
"Celina was there at the door greeting the students each morning and they would wrestle with one another to sit on her lap throughout the day," she added. "Building rapport with students is hard at any age, but she was able to do it from the start."
The rewards of Corona's internship seemed to be mutually beneficial for the students, staff and Corona.
"I think I speak for all of us when I say we were grateful to be a part of the program," Avis said. "It's always nice when you can help a young mind find where they want to go in the world."

Woke up from a deep sleep last night. After a kebab, I felt nausea and tired. In the morning, all the windows and doors were closed as expected, different from the last night. The person who talked to me has left. I saw an empty bed with the white blanket. I took a shower again, and expected the steam could give some help to clear the digested nose. This would be a tough day.
I scheduled to climb all the way up to the summit. Starting from Grindlewald. Along with the trail to enter a small village called Bussalp. It is said that there's a small waterfall that can be a stop to take a rest. Then follow the trail through faulhorn. The highest point around the area, and reached to the famous Bachalpsee lake to see the reflection of the world famous Jungfrau mountain. To finish, follow the same mountain fridge and pass through First, I could possibly catch the last bus down at Grosse Scheidegg and go back to Grindlewald and take the return train back to Interlaken.
I finished my toast and apple juice while staring at Jungfrau. There was a terrance in this 10 persons room and none of other roommates was awake to share the view with me. I wore a jacket and pasted the cheap jam onto every slice of toast. They would be my breakfast, lunch, dinner and breakfast. In total 4 meals. I was considering if it would be possible for me to finish as scheduled, considering my physical condition. It should take me about 7~8.5 hours in full speed of my normal pace.
I took the bus to Winderswil and catch up the train for less price. When I just left the train at Grindlewald, the rain started to drop down from the sky. I went to Coop to buy 1 litter of water for today's hiking. The sky was still cloudy and it was still raining. I went back to the train station, because i cannot decide whether I should take the risk to start this 7 hours hiking trip. The weather wasn't ideal for any outdoor events. Eventually I decided to stick to the plan and followed the signs.
It is funny that the trail starts at a small corner which is just next to the train station. People have to enter the alley to discover the direction sign. It was very frustrating start, and I was worried about my legs, the twisted inquiry that should be recovered 1 week ago but it didn't. I kept going up but honestly, the signs are very confusing, for me. I had troubles of understanding if it means the closest stop to the direction or the most famous stop if people follow this direction. Sometimes, I found the direction signs contain both information and some names don't show on the map...
After 30 mins of the hike, I stopped for a rest and for checking the direction on the map in front of the sign. Again, one direction says to First, which it's in the plan but i should go west first. For the direction shown on the sign, it says some names that it is not shown on the map. So should I take a risk? I knew eventually I would get there but as the matter of time, it was absolutely not acceptable under this circumstance. Then I started to calculate the time if I was able to catch the last bus back to Grindlewald. Putain, there would be no cushion time for this and for the rest of the time, there would be no time for rest, not even thinking of the weather condition...
I made a decision. I could see the Jungfrau the summit was surrounded by the cloud and the weather absolutely looked fucked-up. The sky was grey. I could see the magnificent scenery in front of me. The mixture feeling about this astonishing view, the tiredness from the sickness, the crippled legs, and waterproof jacket, and the strong wind, the rain, the grey sky. I was not sure if I can finish the hike, and I didn't want to trap in the mountain considering I am a traveler alone. I should take care of myself. I kept looking at the summit and mountain riffs in front of me. The green grass field curves by the hills.
I started to descend from where I went up. Now I was more sure that it was a right decision. Every step I made, hurt so much when I lifted up my right leg. The muscle was still screaming at me and I cannot image if i carried on the trails, how much pain I should endure to finish. I walked slow and took me 4 times of time to get back to the town. I went to sit on a bench and quietly finished my lunch (the strawberry jam with toast). That was not delicious and tasteless. I hate this feeling. I was thinking of personal failure and my body condition and my fever.
I should lay down. Wait, until I get back to the hostel. Finally I was back to the room and everyone in the room was not there but somewhere (i don't really care). I lay down and tried to take a nap. I fell asleep for one and half hour. Another roommate who brought a (toy) gun with him was back. I heard he and his friends were from Australia. We greeted and that was all. I went up and put myself together.
I decide that I should go to lake as my only schedule for this afternoon.

Lauryn Hill confuses fans
Lauryn Hill has left fans "confused" and "underwhelmed" on her present US tour.
The former Fugees singer has habitually appeared up to three hours late for dates during her tour and confused the audience by playing unrecognisable versions of her own songs.
At a recent show in Atlanta, the 'Everything Is Everything' singer reportedly said from the stage how she was tired of "playing the same music night after night".
A disgruntled concertgoer told SandraRose.com: "Lauryn said, 'I want crowd participation,' but nobody could participate because nobody knew the music! Everybody was looking around like, 'What song is this?'"
"It was new music completely. The lyrics were the same, but every single record she played she put a different spin on it. She changed the whole thing.
"You can't just say 'I don't wanna play my music night after night.' That's what we pay our money to hear!"
Meanwhile her former bandmate Wyclef Jean has spoken about Lauryn and third Fugees member Pras Michel, saying that while he loves them, the group - who split up in 1997, but reunited briefly from 2004 to 2006 - will not get back together again.
He said: "It was the first band of hip-hop in our generation. At the end of the day, Pras is my brother and Lauryn is my sister, despite what the media say.
"The Fugees are not meant to be. We're rock stars from a locked group. You're going to have egos and differences but at the end of the day I love them both very much."Posted on 19 Jan 2011 06:30 to category : Music News

This autumn, I was invited by the publishing company HarperCollins UK to be an occasional guest contributor to the official blog for their online experiment authonomy, which Americans can think of as a "Project Greenlight" for books -- writers are encouraged to upload their unsigned novels, at which point they are read and rated by other unsigned writers, with the top-ranking books each month getting "kicked upstairs" to actual HarperCollins editors. Even better, they've graciously given me permission to reprint the essays here at the CCLaP site a few days later. Below is the latest; and you can find all the rest if you want at the main personal essay master list here at the site.
Reining It In: Summaries and synopses
As I'm sure almost everyone at authonomy is already aware, writing a novel is only half the battle of actually publishing a novel; after the sweat and toil of the creative process itself comes the equally frustrating task of selling it, not just to an agent and then an editor but eventually the public at large. And as part of this process, you can guarantee that various short versions of your story will be requested by these people in various situations, from a full outline for an overstressed editor to a punchy blurb for the book cover itself. So what exactly should go into each of these types of summaries, and how many different types of synopses should a writer have finished and ready to send people? Well, as always, I'm happy to share my opinions on the subject, although as always remind people that mine is not the only legitimate way to look at it, nor will my advice necessarily work in every single publishing situation. In general, though, I think an author could do a lot worse than to have the following kinds of summaries at their disposal, once their book is finished and is being shopped around...
First, let's address what seems to be the industry standard, the half-page general summary, the one designed specifically to fit neatly within a one-page query letter. And in fact, since this type of summary is used almost exclusively to cold-sell a book idea to an industry professional, it's safe to say that there's one rule regarding this type of summary that is more important than any of the others -- that the entire point is not to actually explain the storyline itself, but merely to get someone interested in knowing more. This is in fact the number-one problem among writers regarding query letters, I find, is the compulsion to overwrite them and thus make them less and less effective; because let's not forget, the agent or editor reading that query reads hundreds upon hundreds of them a year, dozens upon dozens of full books as well, and has probably been doing so now for decades, and so is already intimately familiar with every plotline that's ever existed and every twist to that plotline that's ever been attempted. With these people, the goal is never to tell them the details of your book they can already guess; it's to highlight the few elements that might be legitimately different than all those other unsigned manuscripts out there, the things that are legitimately unique and therefore in theory give your book more commercial potential.
Of course, in a happy world, some of these people will indeed become interested in your manuscript, at which point most will request a full detailed outline of the entire thing. Remember, this is not the time to get stingy with plot-revealing details! I hear this all the time from writers, in fact, regarding both this and the query letter mentioned before, this fear that they're somehow "spoiling the story" by revealing too many details from the end of the book. But remember, that's the entire point; that since most industry professionals simply don't have the time to sit and read entire manuscripts they've taken a passing interest in, they will rely instead on a combination of detailed outline and the first twenty pages of the actual book, to determine quickly whether you can write decently and whether your storyline eventually goes anywhere by the end. It's only after both of these things are established that most agents and editors will finally request the entire manuscript; and that's why I recommend having ready a detailed outline with at least a little heft to it, somewhere between two and maybe five or six pages in length, going over the entire storyline and all its developments from beginning to end.
And then of course is something I've gone over here before, the "blurb" or "elevator pitch" or whatever you want to call it, the ten-second summary that can be blurted out during an elevator ride to any stranger who expresses an interest (hence the term's name); but like I said, I've covered this topic in a previous post here, so would encourage you to read that to learn more. And then finally is the type of synopsis many of us are most familiar with, the action-packed and hyperbole-laced dust-jacket summary ("An unforgettable story! The assured announcement of an exciting new literary voice!"), designed solely to get a potential customer excited enough while at the bookstore or Amazon skimming the thing to actually purchase it; and let's face it, that this is the one option a writer can most easily skip, in that any publisher who might end up signing the book will eventually just rewrite this copy anyway, using the marketing people on their staff who are much better at that stuff than you'll ever be. But still, I don't think this is necessarily such a bad last step for a writer to take, for personal reasons more than anything else; after all that work and effort to actually write the book and get it ready to sell, usually for almost no external rewards whatsoever, it can be gratifying to see it finally described in the same breathless tone as any other published book out there. Remember, that's part of the process too, is to have patience and discipline, an eternal amount of optimism and self-belief; the more such little things like this an author can do, to keep their spirits up about their book long after they've finally finished actually writing it, the better off that author will be.
As mentioned, these are certainly not the only options at a writer's disposal, nor are all these options nearly required in every situation; in general terms, though, I think an author will be well-equipped for most situations they encounter by having these four types of summaries eventually down cold, regarding each and every manuscript they end up shopping around. And don't forget, such a thing serves an active purpose in a writer's ongoing career too; this process can reveal things about a manuscript the author didn't even realize was there, can show strengths to that writer's style they didn't realize they had. Any author worth their salt should be constantly interested in bettering themselves as an artist; the summary process helps not only from a commercial standpoint for each project, but from this more aesthetic career-long one as well.
As always, I encourage you to leave your own thoughts about all this in the comments below; and if you have a specific topic you'd like to see addressed here in the future, by all means feel free to drop me a line directly at [ilikejason at gmail.com]. Happy reading!
