Question: What are the elements of a book publishing proposal?
10-second review: Elements of a book proposal: title; content; rationale (reason for writing); competition (others who have written on the same topic and how yours is different); format (# of words, charts, illustrations, appendices, glossary, sidebars); market (or, how to sell the book); chapter-by-chapter summary; credentials; sample chapters.
