New Book Proposal Course

I have some exciting news to share! The Christian Writers Institute has released an all-new edition of my “Elements of an Effective Book Proposal” course. Completely revised and expanded to provide even more value and insight.

Why This Course Matters

I have long taught that writing a book proposal is one of the most critical steps in securing a publishing deal. Whether you’re a new author or a seasoned writer, understanding the elements of a compelling proposal can make all the difference in getting your work noticed by agents, editors, and publishers.

I believe this course can equip you with the necessary tools and knowledge to succeed.

What’s New?

The old version was an audio recording made during one of my lectures at a writers conference. It served its purpose for many years, but this new edition comprises multiple hours of freshly recorded video content. Each key element of a book proposal is discussed in much greater detail than was possible in the older format. Plus, there are all new worksheets and suggested workflow documents that offer better tools for creating your book proposal. Best of all, the course contains sample proposal templates that allow you to follow the building of the document, removing your guesswork.

What if You Already Bought the Course?

If you previously purchased the old version of the course, we are giving you the new version for free! It has already been added to your Christian Writers Institute library, ready for you to dive into.

What Is the Price of This New Course?

The retail price of this valuable resource is $99.99. However, they are making it available to new users at a 70% discount. Only $29.99. A bargain for a course packed with insightful videos, highly valuable workflows, and practical downloads.

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to elevate your writing career. Enroll in the “Elements of an Effective Book Proposal” course today for only $29.99 and gain the knowledge and tools needed to succeed in the competitive world of publishing. Click to review the course details.

Hello, my friends, and welcome back. In my last blog post, I asked what topics you’d like me to discuss. One person asked about description. How do you know when you have enough? How do you know how much to keep and what to edit out? So, first, let’s talk about: What is the purpose of description? Description should serve a specific purpose. It’s up to you as the author to determine that purpose. …

When I first dipped my toes into the world of writing Bible studies, I found myself captivated by the work of Erica Wiggenhorn and Kim Erickson. These two remarkable women were pioneers in launching what would become Moody Publisher’s women’s line, and their dedication to teaching the Word with both depth and practicality left me inspired and eager to follow in their footsteps. Nearly …

You are going along with your tidy to-do list decorated with empty check-boxes waiting to be marked. And then, WHAM! You get hijacked like the rhino in today’s picture and carried off to some unknown destination. Hours go by, and you are tossed to and fro by this new crisis and that new task. Before you know it, the day is done and your eyes find that tidy to-do list. Still pristine as the …

What if I challenged you to think outside the box and consider new ways to wield your pen—or keyboard—for good? A few years ago, I stumbled on an exciting revelation about freelancing. It wasn’t only about churning out articles or snagging bylines—it was about using my words to shine a spotlight on the unsung heroes in my community, the ones making a real difference. By 2017 I found myself …

Writers in the service of King Jesus will, of course, often refer to the Bible—in our lives and in our writings. The words God inspired should inspire us, and no less so the words that pertain directly to our calling and task as writers. With that in mind, I’d like to offer ten Bible passages that I hope will be helpful, insightful, and inspiring for Christian writers: Sing to the LORD, all the …

Do you have what’s needed to be a successful writer? I think you do! A teachable spirit. As a naive beginning writer, I wanted to make an impact by being different. But my story structure and plots were too divergent for the genre to which I aspired. For instance, an early draft of a novel that later went on to be published in a new form showed the character falling into sin at a party. Please …

Adopting a Gameday Attitude

When I am with people who share my interests, I often say that one of the reasons I like sports is that they provide a metaphor for just about everything in life. Dealing with adversity, losing, winning, preparation, and teamwork have direct-line comparisons in much of life, including every aspect of publishing. This also includes one’s personal life. The term “Gameday” is a not-so-subtle codeword …
