ABOUT THIS ONDEMAND WEBINAR
It's become more competitive than ever to get your book traditionally published. Selling your nonfiction book idea, however, is as much a matter of positioning and platform as it is writing skill. And while you don't necessarily need a completed manuscript in hand to get a book deal, you do need a compelling business plan that shows editors and agents that you've done your homework and have a truly salable idea. Assessing your idea, your competition, and your place in the market is what this presentation is all about.
In "How to Write a Bulletproof Nonfiction Book Proposal," Phil Sexton, Writer's Digest publisher and former book sales executive, outlines the key components of a successful nonfiction book proposal, and then demonstrates how to develop each one from start to finish. You'll discover how to craft a proposal that's worthy of your great idea, while providing the information that publishers, editors, agents, and salespeople - even readers - need in order to commit to your book.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
- The definition of prescriptive nonfiction, and how it can put you on the path to publication
- How to demonstrate the need for your book
- How to position yourself as an expert on your topic
- An overview of the nonfiction proposal process
- What to include in your proposal
- How memoir differs from other forms of nonfiction, but why some of these rules still apply
