Writing your non-fiction book proposal

The third part of the 'writing non-fiction and getting it published' course.

Now you’re clear on the book idea, but how do you get it from idea to book deal? Firstly, you need to write a proposal. A really good one. I’ll share mine and you can use this as a template. Then it’s about deciding whether to go for an agent or direct to publisher (this is less conventional), and how to go about either option.
