More than a million books were published last year. Did the bestselling books get to the top because of great marketing or top-notch writing? As much as I hate to admit it, great marketing trumps great writing every single time. In order to survive and succeed in today’s book market, writers need to be savvy marketers. That’s just one of the things that will be featured in the Write Now! Coach's class: Three Keys to Writing Book Proposals that Sell.

Testimonials

"Greg's session on genre was really about writing strong ideas and characters. If that's what genre writing is then that's what I want to do."

-- Linda B.

"[My favorite] session was to be a discussion about Creative Life/The Business of life balance. There were only three people, including myself. We only discussed the original topic for about 15 minutes then ended up moving into a very in depth discussion about character development. I love that we allowed the topic to flow with where ever the conversation took us. Of course that was probably due in part to the small size of the group."

-- Nathan R.

"Chris' session put us all in the scene. It was a lot of seeing what we want to write then expand that vision to create more/better fiction."
