Recently I saw a post on Twitter that went, roughly, "Post three pics that sell your story." Fuck it, videos instead.
Just add DEUS VULT and lightsabers and you get Galactic Christendom.
Sure, there's substance behind the scenes to ensure that it all holds up, but there's your elevator pitch. It's what I use when I think I'm losing focus, because if I can nail that mood then I'm going to entertain the audience and that's what I have to do. This sets the expectations that I need to fulfill, and thereby allows me to identify and filter out what doesn't belong (such as nihilism and the degeneracy it brings). You don't get much more simple than that, in terms of useful writer tools.
