Proposal Writing

Writing a proposal can be one of the most challenging parts of the publishing process.  You have one chance to get the attention of an editor.  Publishing houses receive countless proposals each year--how do you ensure your project stands out and gets noticed?

​

I've reviewed thousands of proposals during my career and know what elevates a proposal above the rest. I also understand the key elements that editors are looking for so they can evaluate whether or not the book is a fit for their list--and whether or not they feel there is a market for the book.

 

I'm available for proposal development, writing, and editing, whether you need someone to work with you on writing a proposal from beginning to end or you just need a final polish to a draft you've completed. I work closely with authors to craft comprehensive descriptions, position their proposal for the marketplace, pitch themselves as the expert who can help sell books, and much more.
