You may finish your whole proposal in our time together! But our actual goal is 60-80%.
You’ll end Bootcamp with:
Allison K Williams brings deep understanding of dramatic structure, sensitivity to voice and theme, technical expertise, and contagious enthusiasm for your work. She is the author of Seven Drafts: Self-Edit Like a Pro From Blank Page to Book and the Social Media Editor of Brevity.
Plan to spend 2-5 hours in advance preparation. This will be a mix of thinking time, reading time, live research & internet research. You can download your workbook & get started right after registration.
Live classes run Friday 12-2PM, Saturday & Sunday 12-3:30PM, April 12-14. All times are USA EASTERN. Saturday and Sunday include a half-hour break for lunch.
Each class day, you will almost certainly want to spend another 1-2 hours on proposal revision & additional research.
After Memoir Proposal Bootcamp, you’ll need additional time for revising, polishing & working on your sample chapters. This will vary based on whether you started with a draft proposal, finished or partial manuscript, both, or neither.
Self-publishing, small press & hybrid authors must identify your true audience & how to reach them. Your proposal will guide your manuscript revisions to reach that audience. The demographic data, comps, blurb lists & supporting publication ideas serve as a blueprint for your marketing plans.
You’ve got a head start! We’ll make sure your time is well-spent, with tools & insights to revise & polish a proposal that will sell your book.
Maybe in 2025, depending on Allison’s overall schedule. But if you can’t make it live, you can still watch & ask questions on the recorded videos for 60 days.
