Kelly L. Adams Stone Member Registered: 04/08/03 Posts: 267 Loc: Florida	Writer ladies, I'm working on a book proposal and need some answers to short questions about your writing process. At this time I'm looking for published writers only (sorry, it's necessary due to the slant of book). If you'd be willing to help me out by answering a few short questions via email, please email me and I"ll send you the questions. kelly@kellylstone.com. Thanks, Kelly

Vi Member Registered: 05/21/05 Posts: 252	Kelly, I am published, but I've never had to write a book proposal. I wrote one true story and the rest are fiction. With fiction they ask for synopses. I can recommend a book by Michael Larsen. It's called How To Write a Book Proposal. It's very good. You can purchase it through Amazon.com both new and used, starting at $4.25. Michael and his wife Elizabeth Pomada are Literary Agents in the San Francisco area. They have a Web Site if you want to check them out. I met them at a writers conference once. They are good people. They've been in the business since 1972. Vi

Met him at a conference in Santa Barbara where I was giving a talk on internet publishing a few years ago.

Vi Member Registered: 05/21/05 Posts: 252	Raven, Was it the Santa Barbara Writer's Conference? That's where I met them, briefly. They were introduced in a workshop I was attending. It's been years for me. I attended that conference in 1985, 1989 and 1990. I can't remember which year they were there. Vi
