How to Write a Book Proposal | May 2026 Program

$6,500.00

Live One-Month Cohort

A high-touch, live program for writers who want expert guidance, real feedback, accountability, and direct access to the publishing world while building a serious, sellable book proposal alongside a curated group of peers.

Over four weeks, we work together live to shape, pressure-test, and strengthen your proposal using the same framework I use with private clients.

How it works

Each week includes:

  • Live teaching and discussion sessions

  • Open Q&A on publishing, agents, editors, and positioning, as well as your specific projects and next steps

  • Live proposal reviews, editing, and feedback

  • Weekly coworking sessions to make real progress

  • Opportunity to see other proposals being shaped and refined

  • Strategic guidance on approaching agents and positioning your work

  • Structured worksheets and materials

This is not just a curriculum. The core value is live access, feedback, and momentum.

What’s included

  • Four weeks of live programming, teaching, and Q&A

  • Live proposal reviews and group editing

  • Weekly coworking sessions

  • One-on-one sessions (as included in your cohort tier)

  • All worksheets and materials, plus session recordings

  • High-level peer networking within a small, curated group

What you’ll build

By the end of the cohort, you will have:

  • A clear, compelling book concept

  • A polished proposal overview

  • Defined audience and market positioning

  • A strong chapter-by-chapter outline

  • Strategic clarity on next steps with agents and submissions

Investment

  • $6,500 USD (Or two payments of $3,600 — please email me if you're interested.)

    Enrollment is limited to maintain a high-touch experience.

Who this is for

This cohort is for you if you want live feedback, accountability, and direct access to insider publishing insight. If you learn best through discussion and interaction, want momentum and structure, and peer connection, and you're serious about finishing and positioning a proposal.
