I have always included material from the back cover for my synopsis. As Mike
said it's the best way to get a good overview. And it is part of the book. I
have never had an issue. And I never put in the words from the back cover.
I'd think that's obvious. I could never write that flowery.

Mike, That was my thinking also, that's why I didn't understand the note from Gustavo on the return of Ruin Creek to the step one list, saying as I understand it that copyrighted material wasn't permitted for the synopsis. I didn't persomally see the note so maybe I misunderstood. Tom

Tom
It's been my understanding, and those of many others, that jacket info, as
long as it is taken from the book itself, is ok for a long synopsis.
If this isn't ok, then suddenly a whole bunch of long synopses (probably
in the hundreds or maybe even thousands) will have to be removed.
Also, few individuals would then ever submit long synopses if as putting
them would suddenly become a chore.
And book jackets make a perfect overview of what a book is as that is
their function.
