One-on-One Book Proposal coaching is the solution that gets your book project off the back burner—and on track to pitching agents in the next 6 months.
Are you ready to commit to yourself and your book idea, and make this book proposal happen?
Writing a book proposal is a difficult, complex project.
It’s like writing a business plan for your book.
The typical nonfiction book proposal is about 50-70 written pages, including:
- Detailed overview of your concept
- Market and competitive analysis
- Thorough and unique marketing plan
- Detailed table of contents
- Two polished sample chapters
And then there’s pitching. Researching agents, developing a query letter, sending 30+ queries out.
And then wondering if you’re doing it all right….
