Learn what catches the eye of an agent or editor - whether it's fiction or nonfiction - and how to make your project stand out from the crowd.


Description

Why do some projects get picked out of the pile by agents and editors while most do not? It's because great books that catch the eyes of the pros are a combination of an excellent idea, excellent writing, and, in some cases, an excellent platform.

In this webinar, we discuss, in detail, the three-tiered approach that all publishers look at in evaluating potential books: the idea, the writing, and the platform. Writers will learn exactly what these terms mean, and the relative importance of each tier for different types of books. We discuss ways to evaluate your own project based on this structure, and how to improve whatever areas need help.

What you'll learn:
  • How to capture your book in a compelling hook that will draw the attention of agents and editors.
  • How to determine if your rejections are less about your project and more about the marketplace.
  • What is meant by the "competitive advantage" and how to know if you have it.
  • How to make your writing shine,taking an idea and fleshing it out with voice, narrative, point-of-view, and structure.
  • How to develop an attractive writer platform,connecting with other writers and individuals while making yourself a visible authority on a subject.
  • How agents and editors quickly look over a project and decide if it has the necessary elements to make them request more.
  • How to get your book published!


Speaker
Rachelle Gardner is an agent with WordServe Literary Group, representing both fiction and nonfiction. She has been in the publishing business for fifteen years, with experience in marketing, sales, international rights, acquisitions and editorial. Rachelle is looking to represent authors with long-term publishing potential. She's looking at all genres of adult fiction except fantasy, sci-fi, and erotica, and prefers stories with strong characters and page-turning plots. Currently her favorite genres are contemporary women's fiction, historical romance, and romantic suspense. In non-fiction, she's looking for authors with strong messages (for either a Christian audience or the general market) and significant marketing platforms.

Who should attend?
  • Fiction writers who are writing a book or have a completed project.
  • Nonfiction writers developing a book proposal or project.
  • Writers who have been rejected and are looking to evaluate and possibly refine their work to make a project more attractive.
Please note that Rachelle does not accept nor specialize in children's or middle grade literature, and she is only considering limited YA. So while she will likely pass along good advice that can translate to children's and YA, she will not address those genres specifically in this webinar.

Perfect for Protein Coffee & So Easy to Use
Color: Gray
The SIMPLETaste Handheld Milk Frother works great and has become part of my morning routine. It mixes protein powder into my coffee so much better than stirring with a spoon—smooth, frothy, and no clumps. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and powerful enough to quickly blend coffee, protein powder, creamers, or even matcha in seconds. Cleanup is simple, and it stores easily in a drawer. If you love adding protein to your morning coffee, this little frother is a game changer!

The Stand Is the Unexpected Favorite
Color: Gray
I use this at my morning coffee station for mixing powdered supplements into my coffee shake — more than one goes in and it handles them without complaint. For a small battery-operated device it has real power. Cleans easily. The foam quality is good for home lattes without any particular technique required. But my favorite part is, unexpectedly, the stand. It’s sturdy and well made and gives me somewhere sensible to set a dripping frother instead of it lying on the counter. A small thing that earns its counter space.

Perfect frother

Absolutely love my frother. I'm actually impressed. This frother definitely makes a bigger better frothed milk. I use this frother multiple times a day and have been so pleased with the battery life. Easy and quick to charge. Love the reliability of this little gadget

This is the one!
Color: Gray
I ended up going with another brand, which I returned because it was impossible to insert the batteries into the too-tight compartment (other reviewers had the same issue and I should have listened). So I bought this one and not only is the battery compartment ample size and easy to insert the batteries into, the company even sends you two AA batteries to start you off! I also very much appreciate the fact that you don't have to hold down the button, just push it once to start and push it again to stop. It's powerful and I love that it sits in its own stand and looks nice in my kitchen while doing so.
