CreativeLive - How to Write a Killer Book Proposal
You might have an amazing book or idea to sell, but the only way you’ll be able to seal the deal is with a strong, persuasive book proposal. Much more than just an introduction to your book, a proposal gives literary agents and acquiring editors the information they need to make the tough decision to take on your work.
In this class, you’ll learn how to:
- Persuade rather than summarize.
- Figure out your target audience.
- Create a market analysis and choose comparison titles strategically.
- Write a bio or have someone else write it for you.
- Define your author platform and explain what you’ll do to make your book a success.
- Create a chapter-by-chapter outline.
- Write a short, sweet and attention-grabbing query letter.
