Most writers write for publication, but many writers don't have the time, or the skills, or the patience, or the luck to find their way into print. That's why I offer manuscript submission assistance. If I feel your book-length manuscript has a good chance of being published, I'll prepare a manuscript proposal package for you and give you advice on how and where to send the work.

The book proposal package consists of a winning cover letter, a synopsis or overview, a market and competition analysis, an author biography statement, and a few chosen elements from the book (Table of Contents, Introduction, and/or first chapter, for example.)

I will also research the market for you and come up with a list of over fifty agents and publishers and editors who might be interested in publishing your book. I'll give you their names and addresses, in the order I think you should try them, starting with what I think are your best bets.

Before I create a book proposal package, I ask the author to fill out a questionnaire so I’ll know as much as I can know about the book. If you’re interested in this service, please take a look at that questionnaire, which you’ll find at The Book Proposal Package.
