What’s a Book Proposal?
A book proposal is an argument for your idea, a business case for your project, a showcase of your expertise, and a declaration of your voice. It is used by nonfiction writers seeking literary agents and traditional book publishing deals.
The book proposal is generally used to make a pitch to agents and to publishers before the book is written. You use the proposal to invite an agent and publisher to invest in you and your project.
