Professional Writing and Editing Services – San Diego’s leader in writing effective and compelling non-fiction Book Proposals for first-time authors.
Are you ready to send your book or your book IDEA to an Agent or Publisher? See the questions below:
Why do non-fiction authors need a Book Proposal?
A Book Proposal is a marketing tool required by non-fiction book authors to acquire a Literary Agent or sell their book idea to a Publisher. Having one is necessary for all first-time authors, since virtually all non-fiction books are sold by a Book Proposal. In fact, without a Book Proposal, Agents and Publishers will not even look at your book or idea. And many books are rejected solely because of a poorly-written Book Proposal.
What’s In a Book Proposal?
Book Proposal formats vary, but ours comes directly from a top Southern California Literary Agent. In addition to telling Literary Agents and Publishers about the subject of your book, the Book Proposal outlines your book in detail; gives necessary information about the author’s credentials and qualifications; and presents a plan for marketing. Publishers want to know why they should invest in your book! How will it be promoted, and who will be your readers?
Why Tell Me What You Want To Say?
We are one of literally a handful of professional Book Proposal writers on the West coast. Because we specialize in this type of marketing tool, we know how to write Book Proposals to give your book idea the best chance at publication. Our unique format comes directly from a top San Diego Literary Agent, whose decades of experience have provided us knowledge of what Publishers look for when evaluating a non-fiction book query. Firsthand experience with Book Proposals makes us qualified to present your idea in the most effectual and compelling way possible.*
Other Advantages of Using Tell Me What You Want To Say…
We are able to complete your Book Proposal within two months, whereas others take significantly longer (average three months). Also, you can choose to have us evaluate and improve a Book Proposal you have already researched and written; or we can do the entire Proposal ourselves.
* Although we work with Literary Agents, we do not provide Agent or Publisher referrals. We can supply recommendations for seeking an Agent or Publisher, as well as resources for marketing your book.
