A book proposal is an equation: a business case married with a marketing plan that you submit to publishers. In this workshop, students will learn the full spectrum of writing a first-draft proposal: what to include, what to leave out, faux pas to avoid, how to structure your proposal in a professional format, and how to demonstrate to publishers that you’re a serious writer who understands the 21st-century publishing landscape. Each week, students will write one draft section of their proposal. They will receive weekly critique on their drafts from the instructor, and they will also workshop sections with one another as partners or in small groups. Students should have a completed or in-progress nonfiction manuscript and be comfortable using Word, Google Docs, or Scrivener. San Diego Writers, Ink on Facebook / Instagram
