Taking a book idea from proposal to contract
from The Kettle with Meagan Francis Hosted by Meagan Francis
I'm back from my book-writing break and ready to talk shop! In this episode I answer listener questions about the process of pitching your book idea to an agent or publisher, including: -How long should I expect it to take to hear back from an agent after I query them? -What questions should I ask a potential agent before I sign? -How hands-on should I expect my agent to be in the proposal process? -What size audience/readership will an agent or editor be looking for in an author? And more! Look back next week for the follow-up episode: what it's like to actually write the book once contract is in hand! Episode Links: How a book proposal is made - This is a video I made a little over a year ago when my proposal was still out to editors! In it I detailed the process of writing the proposal and pitching agents.
