The BOOK PROPOSAL STUDIO is for writers in the process of preparing a book-length manuscript to present to agents or editors. Participants will work side by side with Kathy to create a One Sheet for use at the conference. Participants will also begin preparation of a professional book proposal.
A book proposal has a specific format and must answer the questions on an editor’s mind. As an author, you must be able to answer questions such as the topic and message of your book, the take-away value, your target market, and more.
An editor wants to get right to the point. A well-written book proposal helps you to clarify your project in your own mind so that you can clearly communicate your idea for publishing consideration. This will give you the confidence you need to show any agency or publisher you are a professional.
Attendees should come with their manuscript and all the information needed to write the proposal.
