Hungry Authors

24. Season 1 Finale: How We Got a Book Deal!


Listen Later

That’s right – Hungry Authors is going to be a book! This week, we’re spilling the tea on how we ourselves secured a traditional publishing deal. We share exactly what happened, step-by-step, with all of the details of how we made connections, worked with our agent, and negotiated our contract. In addition, we break down the pros and cons of our book proposal, getting really honest about what we were up against and how we overcame some very common challenges.Ultimately, we are SO grateful for the opportunity to bring Hungry Authors to life – and that’s why we’ll be taking the summer off from podcasting to focus on writing the book. You can look forward to Season 2 in September 2023, along with a new book mapping product that we’ll be launching soon.In the meantime, we’d love to send you our EXACT book proposal (minus our home addresses!), the query letter we sent to agents, and the video we submitted to publishers. Click here to give us your email so we can send it to you!https://bit.ly/hungryauthorsPlus, keep following us on Instagram @hungryauthors this summer as we document the writing process!
