By Jason Boog

No matter what your project, you’re going to need help with your non-fiction book proposal, the magical document that communicates your idea to publishers. Dust off your idea at MediaBistro’s Nonfiction Book Proposal Workshop on Monday, October 13.

“In this one-night workshop — limited to 12 students — you’ll learn what publishers and agents are looking for and the finer points of writing a book proposal that sells. We’ll spend most of the class workshopping your proposal-in-progress.”

Follow this link to apply, just send a brief letter of interest and a description of your non-fiction masterpiece (or a draft of your proposal). The night costs $125 ($100 for AvantGuild members).
