I like this non-standard synopsis. I think it’s the only one I’ve seen written in the first person. Edited by Silverlock - 05 Jun 2023 at 2:07am |

Group 6: Ghost story / nightlife / a decorator
Dollface When Tara reluctantly agrees to take on a renovation project, she’s determined that it will be her last. Little does she know how true that will prove to be. I hate writing the synopsis, I always forget it and rush it at the last second. 😂 Some of these sound so great!
