Are you a new writer for children? This one-day course offers an understanding of what goes on inside a publishing house, how publishers make their choices, how to give yourself the best chance of publication and what to expect from the publishing process.

A book proposal is the audition for a non-fiction book. Many non-fiction works, especially from debut authors, are sold off the strength of a proposal and a sample chapter. In this intensive, practical program, you will learn the essentials of putting these working documents together, so agents and publishers can understand your concept’s strength.

Write your novel, discover your readers

This three-month course builds on the work started in Writing a Novel Stage 1 and is suitable for writers who have completed that course, or who have a substantially completed a rough or first draft of a novel-in-progress.
