can't anyone write a decent query letter these days? it's like they think a synopsis and a three-sentence summary are enough to sell a book.

yeah because nothing screams "i'm a worthy author" like a three-sentence summary that just lists the plot points in order

Totally agree. And it's not even a good summary - just a bland recitation of the story beats. If you can't hook me with the pitch. How are you going to keep me engaged for a whole book?
are you gonna tell us that plot summaries are the reason you haven't actually written anything yet?
