Non-fiction book proposals

A non-fiction book proposal is a detailed pitch to persuade a publisher or agent to publish your book. It typically includes a summary of the book’s topic, its target audience, your qualifications, competition analysis, and a chapter outline. The purpose is to demonstrate the book’s value and marketability before full writing begins. A well-crafted proposal helps editors understand your idea, your expertise, and why your book would succeed, making it an essential step in the publishing process for non-fiction works.
