Description

If you’re a creative person with a unique vision, the idea of publishing a book may have crossed your mind—but you may not know where to start. In this webinar, we’ll cover how to craft a compelling proposal to submit to a publisher, from positioning your concept to preparing sample materials and anticipating questions.

This webinar is brought to you through CGOA with the generous support of Schiffer Craft.

 At Schiffer Craft, an imprint of Schiffer Publishing, handmade creations are the heartbeat of what we do. Whether you’re a weaver, woodworker, quilter, crocheter, potter, or simply an enthusiast of beauty, our books and craft kits are designed to inspire you toward a rich, creative life that blends traditional techniques with your own unique vision. The story doesn’t end with the book; it continues with you.
