Personalized, Professional Guidance For Your Book Proposal

Are you wondering what a book proposal is, or have you attempted to write one? Are you hoping to publish a book, especially in the Christian market? Don’t know how to get started? Often, prospective authors get caught in a whirlwind of questions:

Agent or direct-to-publisher?

Professional editor or friends who are good with words?

The best way to be seen by that gatekeeper is to create the kind of proposal that answers the question, “Will this book sell?”
