S2 Ep43: How to Write a Brilliant Book Proposal

Season #2 Episode #43

Before you write a single word of that book you’ve been dreaming about, you need a strong proposal in order to get the green light from a publisher.

So, what do you need to include, and how can you showcase your expertise in a way that will get the attention of the right people when it comes to publishing your book? 

This episode is your beginner’s guide to writing and understanding what a book proposal actually is.

Listen to discover:

  • Why a book proposal is essential if you want to be traditionally published - but why it’s a great idea for self-publishing authors to put one together, too.
  • The different sections you need in your proposal and why - you’ll definitely want your notebook at the ready!
  • Why it’s so important to choose the right publisher for you and avoid sending out blanket proposals to them all.

And lots more!

So whether you’re aspiring for traditional publication or you’re going down the independent route, this episode will help to give you clarity on the process and help turn your book idea into a compelling proposal.

Enjoy!
