A summary is like a “ribbon” that neatly ties all the ideas together, leaving no loose ends of any part of a plot. A summary should not leave you hanging at the end of your reading.
You will need to write summaries all the time. Whether you are writing a sales letter, a blog post or a business email, you will need to provide a summary. Try to go back to your previous writings, and see how they could be improved.
