New ebook!
Would you like to
GET
PAID to write a book?
If
you're thinking this is plain fantasy, think
again. All professional writers get paid to
write their books.
How?
They sell their books via proposals before
they write the books.
A
book proposal is a document which convinces
a publisher to buy your book before you've
written it. Your proposal says, in effect:
"Hey, I've got a great idea for a book which
lots of people will want to buy. Do you want
to publish it?"
Think of it as a combination brochure and
outline of your proposed book.
It's
easily possible to make a fast $10,000, or
even a six figure amount. You could even
make seven figures --- over a million
dollars for twenty pages of text.
It
sounds incredible, but a fast seven figures
is certainly possible if you have a
HOT,
hot idea or have had an experience that
hundreds of thousands of people want to read
about.
In
his 2001 book about writing non-fiction,
Damn! Why Didn't I Write That?, author
Marc McCutcheon says that it's not hard to
make a good income writing non-fiction: "you
can learn the trade and begin making a
respectable income much faster than most
people think possible".
Do you need
experience to sell a book on proposal?
No!
You just need a good proposal. :-)
"How to Write and Publish Your Own
Books" shows you how to go from
idea to completed book proposal in seven
short days.
Imagine --- in seven days, you could be
sending your proposal to agents and editors!
The
ebook includes everything you need to know.
Just follow the easy steps. It even includes
a sample proposal, which got a contract from
an agent immediately it was sent out.
You can do it too!
Here's what you'll discover in "How to Write
and Publish Your Own Books"
Exactly what a book proposal is, and an
EASY
way for you to come up with more saleable
ideas for books than you could write in a
dozen lifetimes.
Here's an excerpt from
Day Two:
Dispelling myths and a word about confidence
If you're feeling nervous
now that you're about to start this project,
relax. Tell yourself that you will take it
step by step. All you need to do is work at
it steadily, a word, sentence and paragraph
at a time, and you will complete your
proposal, and then when you've sold the
proposal, you'll complete your book using
the same easy-does-it method.
While we're at it, let's dispel a few myths.
Myth One
It takes a special
talent to write books.
It takes persistence.
There are as many different kinds of writers
as there are people. Some are young, some
are elderly, many are in-between. You don’t
need any special writing talent to write
books, nor do you need to be highly
educated. Many successful writers have never
completed high school. If you can write well
enough to write a letter, you can write a
book.
Myth Two
Writers starve in
garrets.
Many professional writers
make incomes that would make doctors and
lawyers envious. Most make reasonable
incomes. If you decide to make a career of
writing nonfiction books, the major benefit
is that if you choose your book's topic with
care, your book can stay in print for many
years. For each year that your book's in
print, you get two royalty checks. Let's say
that you write two books a year for five
years. At the end of the five years, if your
books all stay in print, you'll be getting
ten royalty checks a year. These ongoing
royalties are your nest-egg, profitable
investments in your future.
The
"blurb" is the back cover material for your
book --- the selling points which will get
people to buy the book. If you write the
blurb before you write an outline, you're
guaranteed not to wander off the track as
you write your book.
Writing the blurb will keep you on-track as
you write your proposal and your book. I've
included two sample blurbs from my published
books to show you how to write a selling
blurb.
The
fast and easy way to research your proposal
– you may not need to do any research
at all. You may already know all you need to
know.
How
to write a SELLING query letter, with sample
letters which have SOLD books.
The
fast and easy way to write your proposal ---
everything you need to include to make sure
that your proposal SELLS.
Seven days, and you're done! How to write
the professional way, and a step by step
easy way to revise.
"How
to Write and Publish Your Own Books also
includes a complete, selling proposal, which
got a contract from the first agent who saw
it.
Have you always want to write a book and be
a published author?
This ebook
gives you a complete method. The ebook shows
you EXACTLY HOW
to write and SELL.
You
can be a published author much faster than
you imagine.
Can I show you how to write a book proposal
that sells?
Yes! I've sold many fiction and non-fiction
books, all on proposal. This ebook includes
sample proposals which have SOLD.
I show you exactly what to do, and explain
the methods I use to write and sell.
If you've ever thought "I could write a
book" --- you can!
Can I guarantee that
you'll sell your proposal?
I
can't guarantee it , but I'll make it
several thousand times more likely that
you'll sell. You'll learn what a
professional, selling proposal looks like,
and will learn how to write a professional,
saleable proposal.
Publishers receive hundreds of proposals
each week. As any book editor or agent will
tell you, 99% have no chance of
selling ever --- they're amateurish.
Working with this ebook will ensure that
your proposal makes it into the 1% of
saleable proposals.
