Book Pitching

I wrote my first proper book proposal at the weekend, for a book based on The Office Diet, and emailed it off to White Ladder Press. They replied impressively promptly today (alas, to say that whilst it was an interesting idea, they don't do diet books...) Still, it was lovely to have a personal reply.

Next plans are to:
- Look at who publishes the most popular diet books on Amazon
- Trawl through the Yearbook for non-fiction publishers

Good luck with it!

I think the great stuff you've got on the Office Diet would make an excellent book. Let's hope it finds a home at a nice publishing company.

I keep envisioning a series of Crabby McSlacker self-help books... problem is, I'm too lazy to write any! Kudo's to you for getting a proposal out there.
