SELL YOUR FICTION OR MEMOIR!
"Sell Your Stuff" is an
intensive webinar for writers of fiction and memoir. If you're writing
a novel or life story, it takes a stunning package to see a book all
the way to publication. You have to become more than just a writer—you
have to sell your stuff to agents and editors. That's the part most
writers have trouble understanding, and that's what this webinar is all
about.
- How to draw an agent into your story in just a few words—whether it's
your query, verbal pitch or the first page of your manuscript. - What goes into a killer query—from making a connection to an agent, to
drafting an exciting pitch that will leave agents wanting more. - The importance of a one-sentence tagline that gets a reader excited about your book.
- What agents look for on that all-important Page 1.
- How to plan and prepare a verbal pitch of your book so you can meet with agents at writers conferences.
- What goes into a complete proposal for fiction—and how to know all the tools at your disposal.
- How agents and editors quickly look over a project and decide if it has the necessary elements to make them request more.
- How to get your book published!
