#4850, "TL/DR Role Chapter"


          

When writing a role I tend come up with the idea and then summarise the sequence of events in dot point form before building out the full story. I'm sure I'm not the only one who does this.

I'm wondering, when writing said larger role, would some of you like an exec summary first chapter? This chapter would summarise what the full role is about, in dot point form, without the full story telling.

For those less interested in a lengthy role it means you get a quick view of what the character is about. It also serves as a quick reminder, rather than skimming a long role again.

I would put in a disclaimer, essentially saying "skip this chapter if you want to experience the full role", but wanted to know if it was even worth doing to begin with.

Thanks.
