Sell your book the easy way --- sell a proposal You can get paid to
write a book. It's easily possible to make a fast $10,000, or even
a six figure amount. You could even make seven figures --- over a
million dollars for twenty pages of text. It sounds incredible, but
a fast seven figures is certainly possible if you have a HOT, hot
idea or have had an experience that hundreds of thousands of people
want to read about. In his 2001 book about writing non-fiction, Why
Didn't I Write That?, author Marc McCutcheon says that it's not
hard to make a good income: "you can learn the trade and begin
making a respectable income much faster than most people think
possible." The good part is that you don't need to write your book
before you get some money. You write a proposal, and a publisher
will give you an advance, which you can live on while you write the
book. Writing a proposal is the smart way to write a book. It's the
way professional writers sell non-fiction. Selling a book on a
proposal is much easier than selling a book that you've already
written. A book proposal is a complete description of your book. It
contains the title, an explanation of what the book's about, an
outline of chapters, a market and competition survey, and a sample
chapter. A book proposal functions in the same way as any business
proposal does: you're making an offer to someone you hope to do
business with. It will be treated by publishers in the same way
that any business treats a proposal. A publisher will read your
proposal, assess its feasibility, cost it, and if it looks as if
the publisher will make money, the publisher will pay you to write
the book. When you've sold your proposed book to a publisher, your
role doesn t end with writing your book. You re in partnership with
your publisher to ensure the book's success. If you do your part,
both you and your publisher will make money."
