How To Successfully Submit Your Manuscript To Any Literary Agent! by Grand007: 2:28pm On Oct 22, 2016
Finally, you’ve finished writing that book. How long did it take? Months? Years? The truth is…it doesn’t matter. What matters is your book is now ready. But you’re not done. Writing the book is the first part of the journey. Getting it published is the second and most important part of the journey. Now, you need a publisher. So, how do you find one? Where do you find one that will accept and publish your kind of book?

This is where a literary agent comes in. Literary agents are the gatekeepers between authors and the book publishing contracts of their dreams. A good literary agent thoroughly understands how the publishing world works. They know what makes publishers and editors tick. And most importantly, they know how to negotiate and help you secure good publishing contracts.

So, how do you successfully submit your manuscript to a literary agent? Admittedly this can be quite a daunting task…if you lack the right information.

Literary agents receive large volumes of submissions from aspiring writers like you, daily. Sadly, most of these submissions end up in the ‘slush pile’ – a sort of graveyard for novels…even great stories.

Why?

Well, because the Query, Synopsis, and Manuscript were NOT professionally written, formatted and submitted.

Literary agents have only a few minutes, sometimes seconds, to decide if a book is worth their time…or not.

In this remarkable book, you will learn, with practical examples, how to:

• Write a brilliant Query
• Write a detailed Synopsis
• Properly format your Manuscript
• Write the perfect proposal for your nonfiction book.

In addition, you’ll have unique access to a carefully-selected list of over 40 credible literary agents you can send your work to. It must be noted that these agents are interested in reading stories by African writers.

Furthermore, also contained in this book is a list of reliable places where you can publish your poetry books and plays.

You are GUARANTEED to learn how to successfully get your manuscript past ANY literary agent and go on to getting the publishing contract of your dream!

This book is available as an eBook. The price is N1, 500.
