		<description>Marilu,

That&#039;s pretty good.  If he can&#039;t defend the pack against the attack will they all be killed?</description>

		<description>AE,

I like it, it has potential.  It has her goal (escaping the genetic researchers, learning to use her powers).  It sounds like the researchers are also going to be the conflict.  What happens if she is caught?  Why is it dangerous for her to trust the werewolf?  What happened that prompted the genetic researchers to try to capture her?</description>

		<description>Carrie,

I think the second one is better.  Loglines can be two lines.  But the general rule is no more than twenty-five words.  Usually that means one line.  Now, some publishers don&#039;t care if it&#039;s one line or two or even three.  The most important thing is to put in the interesting parts so you grab their attention.  

What&#039;s the inciting incident though?  And is that the only conflict?  She doesn&#039;t have time for rich playboys?</description>

		<description>Late to the party... but after reading your article, Cindy, I felt empowered to tackle the logline for my YA urban fantasy I&#039;m writing. Here&#039;s what I&#039;ve come up with: To escape capture by genetic researchers, and learn to control her unique elemental shapeshifting powers, a young girl must trust her life to a renegade werewolf.</description>

		<description>argh!!!! no internet today, so I&#039;ll try sneaking this in and see if Cindy is still around. =)

Having world-class no-holds-barred sex with your client was a definite no-no. Manhattan’s newest advertising executive Kylie Brandt was the one who made the rule; would she also be the one to break it with super sexy, rich, gorgeous publishing magnate Damien Ryder?

in the various logline examples (on harlequin) that I have read, they were two lines, and mostly ended with a question. Here&#039;s the other I tried...

Rock climbing was easy according to well known adventurer and publicist Damien Ryder - compared to getting advertising exec Kylie Brandt into his bed. She has no room for rich playboys in her busy life, much less a wanderer like Damien, or does she?

any suggestions for a logline loser?

=)

		<description>Hi, Beppie.

You&#039;re welcome.  I find it really helps to have the logline first.  

Hi, Barb.

It does take practice but I&#039;m convinced you can master it.   You can still send me your loglines if you want help with them.</description>
