Table Of (mal)contents

Proposing to propose, taking chances, and the problem of how-to-books

Synopsis

Barnabas is writing a new book. Dave is helping launch a few key new titles for B&H. I'm in the midst of putting together a new book proposal for something I've wanted to write (and have been poking away at) for four-plus years. So today, we're digging deep and offering some practical advice for aspiring authors, specifically around what makes a good proposal. Listen in as we discuss: What are a few of the key ingredients of a good book proposal? Why is it helpful to have a literary agent? Should platforms and audiences matter when writing? Why are there so many how-to books on the market today? Would a publisher take a chance on Knowing God today? As always, thanks to our sponsors: Lagares Roasters has partnered with us to make the Table of (mal)Contents blend. Pick up a bag (or 12) today.
