Writing Workshops on Marketing Your Writing

If you’re writing short fiction or nonfiction, you can hone your marketing skills with a professional short story or article writer in a fast but thorough four-week workshop.
Or, if your goal is to see your book commercially published, our proposal and query letter writing workshops will show you how to create this most important marketing tool—and how to make sure it catches an editor’s or agent’s eye.

Writing The Nonfiction Book Proposal
You’ve got a great idea for a book. You’ve done the research, interviewed the experts, collected all the materials you need, started—or maybe even finished—a draft of the manuscript. Now what? Before you spend months finishing and/or polishing that manuscript, wouldn’t it be nice to know there’s an editor out there who’s already made a commitment to publish it, or an agent who’s agreed to represent it? Professional authors know how to get that commitment up front—with a book proposal package.

Writing The Novel Proposal

Your next step is to find a home for your masterpiece. But just how, exactly, do you go about finding an agent or editor, and – even more important – getting one of them to say “yes”? If your goal is commercial publication, you need to know how to approach the market the way successful novelists do – with a professionally presented novel proposal.
