Learn the Strategies I’m Using to Pursue Publication

Finding a publisher is hard. But over the past few years, I’ve studied effective pitching strategies. So far, practicing them has led to manuscript requests from my two top-choice agents this summer.

I’d love to introduce you to what strategies I’ve used so far, like…

  • Developing a story idea that would appeal to agents.
  • Crafting a compelling one-sentence pitch for my novel.
  • Growing my platform to impress agents and publishers.
  • Going about putting together a book proposal.
  • And much more!

I’ll also let you know what other strategies I use–and whether they work or don’t work–so you can learn from my experience.
