Book Proposal Workshop

The Fastest, Easiest Way to Get Your Book Idea Ready to Sell to Publishers

Get your NONFICTION BOOK PROPOSAL finished and fabulous in just 8 weeks – with encouragement, insight & expert editorial direction…and a dash of fun.”

“A nonfiction book proposal is to publishers what a business plan is to venture capitalists – you’re asking a complete stranger to invest their money in your dream”

The only way to convince a publisher to invest in publishing your book is by presenting them with a well-written book proposal – one that shows off your idea in its best light, highlights what you might be able to do to help sell copies, and why you are the best person to write on this topic. This workshop will tell you how to do that, give you the editorial support you need to do it right, and give you the Whys. 

NEXT SESSION STARTS SEPTEMBER 7, 2023

When you understand what literary agents and publishers are thinking when they read your proposal, you will have that priceless “insider advantage”

Here’s what you will discover:
  • The best way to pitch your book

  • How to know if your idea will sell – in advance

  • Why the first page of your proposal is critical – and how to write it

  • Secrets of proposals that sell well

  • Inner workings of publishers – and the best way to game the system in your favor

  • How to fluff up your credentials and your marketing abilities – ethically and honestly

  • Full developmental editor support

  • Clear, competent professional guidance from industry insiders

  • Lots of patience, encouragement and kindness

Next course starts soon! We have a limited number of editors, so we can only accept a limited number of future authors.

This has been the best information I have found since I started this journey. So far, I have spent about 8K of my own money trying to get my book concept off the ground — meeting a lot of people that tell me they “know how ….” but Wendy is the first, honest, forthright, ‘consultant’ that has the knowledge and capability to really provide direction and feedback on what I want to accomplish. Can’t say enough good things!
One of the best workshops I have attended in my lifetime. Wendy Keller is a master of her craft and sparkles with clarity of thought, an infectious enthusiasm, and honesty that enabled me to get a lot more out of the workshop than I had signed up for. Highly recommend this workshop if you are serious about making it big in the world of nonfiction book writing.
Not only has this workshop taught me the proper way to write a book proposal, it has helped me to dig deep. With the feedback from the editors on each section of the proposal I have written, and all the great information and instructions Wendy provides, I’ve been forced to really think about what I want the heart of this book to be. This is such a great service for new authors trying to get published the right way. Highly recommend!
The course content provided by Wendy Keller was extremely informative and valuable for my future publishing plans. The feedback from actual editors gave true insight into where my content rated currently in the world of publishing. I truly feel that I now know where I need to build and grow in order to write a successful book proposal.

TWO IMPORTANT CAVEATS

1. Your enrollment in this course does not imply that Keller Media will represent you or this book. Please be clear about that…even though finding new talent is the main reason Wendy teaches this course.

2. We will not change your idea. We will give feedback in the form of “developmental editing”. That means we will tell you the thoughts and questions that are likely to occur to any experienced publishing professional when they are reading your material, and invite you to consider making changes. We are not here to tell you if your core concept is “good” or “bad”, only to help you bring it to light in the best possible way.

DECIDING BETWEEN SELF-PUBLISHING AND TRADITIONAL PUBLISHING?

Writing any book requires a thorough outline, a solid analysis of how your book will be better than the competition, and a plan for promoting your book once it is published. Those three elements already represent 3/5ths of a book proposal. Why not turn those elements into a great proposal? Then you can let your literary agent shop it for you while you write the manuscript. That will give you the choice of all possible options.
