HOW TO WRITE A NONFICTION BOOK PROPOSAL THAT SELLS

If you’re serious about writing and publishing that nonfiction book, you’ll need help. Let author and writing teacher Patricia J. Parsons guide you through developing your nonfiction book proposal―that sells.

There are many reasons why you might consider writing a nonfiction book. You may be an expert and want to share your insights in a specific area of expertise. You may be an entrepreneur who would like to showcase your knowledge and skills to potential clients. You may have a passion for a subject area and want to share your research and insights with the broader world. You might have an interesting personal story and want to write a memoir to enrich others’ lives. Whatever the reason you may have for considering writing a book, your first step is to plan and write a book proposal.

Agents and publishers demand nonfiction proposals, and if you plan to self-publish, your submission (for yourself) provides you with direction for writing, publishing and eventual marketing.

This workbook is designed to help you understand what you need, why you need it, and how to create a complete draft of your nonfiction book proposal.

BTW the answer the the latter question? Because I love my son.
