The Proposal Contest
Now…the ball is in your court! If you attended a live, in-person workshop, or are part of the online workshop, you have an amazing opportunity right in front of you: to enter the Writer’s Workshop proposal contest. Please do not let this pass you by! There are THREE really good reasons to enter:
- There is literally no other way to be seen by the Hay House editorial staff without being represented by a literary agent;
- As a Writer’s Workshop participant, you will not be expected to have a large author platform in order to win;
- We’ve found that having a hard-and-fast deadline is a HUGE motivator to actually get the proposal written–it can literally be the difference between wanting to write a book and actually writing it!
We Want to Help!
We at kn literary have had the honor of helping literally hundreds of authors prepare for the Hay House Writer’s Workshop contests–a number of whom have actually WON! And now we’d love to help YOU.
So we’ve created an Ultimate Proposal Prep Toolkit to help prepare you to enter the contest.
Take a look at all of the goodies inside:
