16. Summaries – Do you like them or hate them? How do you come up with them, if you use them?
I don't like summaries, no, but I know how important they can be to help a reader decide what to pick or not pick. (Which is probably why so many people avoid or backbutton away from fic that includes crap like 'lol i suck at summaries'.f you can't be bothered to tell me what it's about why should I be bothered to read it?) When I write summaries I try to come up with a brief description of what happens, without spoilers should they apply.
