A book proposal is a document that outlines your book idea and why it is worth publishing. It can help you get feedback and make sure that you are on the right track before you start writing.
The big question is: should I write a book proposal or get down to writing the book itself?
From KN Literary Arts comes a handy chart that may help you make the right decision.
💬 If you want to be published by a traditional house, you absolutely need a book proposal–no question. But what if you’re not aiming at the big houses? What if you already know you’re taking matters into your own hands?
If you are planning to self-publish a book, you may still consider writing a book proposal. It can help you clarify your book idea and make sure that it is well-defined. It will also research the market for your book and see if there is a demand for it.
💬 Writing the overview section of a book proposal forces you to get really clear about what your book is, why people need it, and why you’re the right person to write it.
Founded by Kelly Notaras, KN Literary Arts is a full-service book studio offering editorial services and marketing strategy for books, book proposals, and more. They cooperate with entrepreneurs, experts, changemakers, memoirists, novelists, and thought leaders.
