Future Shock Story Synopsis

[Loaded sumo]

Hey boarders,
As some of you may or may not know, I've just started writing up my very first future shock, and I was wondering how to go about the 1-page story synopsis, do I tell Tharg the whole story? Or is it more of an advertisement for the story, with the purpose of making Tharg want to read on?
Thanks for all advice in advance,
Loaded Sumo

Having never had one accepted I wouldn't know, but there is the tried and tested 'attach a crisp ten pounds to it', either that or the blackmail photos that Tony Lee used to get Stalag 666 printed

Yikes huff that's a whole keg of bitter that. Foamy.

Sumo - I should imagine this means the whole story summarised.

You have to tell the entire story. By that, I don't mean that you have to a lot of detail or describe everything that is said, etc, but you need to describe the plot.

If the editor (or whoever deals with this. I'm not sure if it's 'Tharg' Matt Smith directly or another member of the editorial team) likes it then he will go on to the script.

And bear in mind it doesn't have to be a one-page synopsis; if you can do it in less, that's the way to go.

And Huff, that made my day amusing
