Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
I know: we all want to write a Great Novel. But in the meantime, don't you have a few terrific ideas for a nonfiction book, too? The subtitle of this book is "How to Get a Contract and an Advance Before Writing Your Book." Doesn't THAT sound better than competing with John Grisham and Tom Clancy? Eighty-five percent of all new titles are nonfiction. So dust off those memoirs, dig up those recipes of Aunt Edna's. Lyon takes you step by step through the process of how to discover and pitch your nonfiction book idea to the best market.
Book Description
The second edition of Elizabeth Lyon’s bestselling Nonfiction Book Proposals Anybody Can Write includes nearly two dozen actual proposals that cover a wide range of topics and clearly illustrate the best way to write winning proposals. This updated and revised edition also contains expanded instructions on writing proposals for memoir and autobiography, new competitive marketing strategies, Web addresses and resources to facilitate writing most sections of the proposal, and an example of a perfect proposal. This valuable resource demystifies the nonfiction book proposal process, which has remained largely unexplained to those outside of the publishing industry. Throughout her book, Ms. Lyon offers accessible guidelines and practical recommendations while encouraging all writers to pursue their dreams of publication. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
