You’re an eager author. You have a great book idea. You’re all fired up about it and think it will sell like wildfire. So you’re getting ready to pitch your idea to literary agents and publishers. Of course you’re going to use a book proposal to do that, and one of the things you’re going to do is tell them that nobody has ever written a book like yours before — nobody, not Stephen King, not Michael Crichton, not anybody.

Looking at another writer’s book proposal example is like seeing a movie after reading a book. You’re often disappointed. This is because what you have in mind isn’t what another writer’s book proposal deals with.

“But I need to find out how to write a book proposal,” I hear writers say all the time. “Where can I look for good examples? And can I trust what I read in the examples of other writers?”

The first point to be made is that you can find book proposal examples in books about book proposals, and also online. That may not help you much, however, if you fail to heed these three warnings.
