Yep, every book.  And 1-2 pages single spaced.  :-)

There is a reason they are called suckopses.  :-) 

Just hit the high points.  I do a brief summary of each character for set up, hit the highest points and that's IT.

Hope that helps.

Second the bad news

Yes, sucknopsis will become a part of your writing life. Forever. The good thing about it is that when you learn what you need to put in and what to leave out, writing them gets easier. Not to say they can be whipped out. Just somewhat easier.
