EP 51: Jennie Nash on the Book Proposal Process, Writers and Their Passion, and Writing Books That Impact People Through Time and Space

Do you want to write a book?

 

Do you know WHY you want to write a book? Do you have something you absolutely have to get on your soapbox about? Or do you wonder why your voice should even be the one to tell this story?

 

Without clarity on WHY you want to write a book, you probably won’t be able to create the kind of book that can really move people, change them, inspire them.

 

On today’s episode I am delighted to share the brilliant and badass Jennie Nash.

 

Jennie is a highly sought after book coach whose clients have landed top New York agents and six-figure book deals with Big 5 houses such as Penguin, Simon & Schuster, and Hachette. She herself is the author of 9 books in 3 genres and is the creator of the Killer Book Proposal Method.

 

Given that amazing resume, it’s no wonder that  she is now on a mission to raise the bar in the book coaching industry as the founder and CEO of Author Accelerator, which has trained and certified more than 70 book coaches in both fiction and nonfiction.

 

We had an eye opening conversation about the power of a book to transform the reader, how to think about writing your book, book proposals and agents and just everything you didn’t know you needed to know about writing a killer book and proposal.

 

We also talk about the current state of publishing, Jennie’s biggest book-related pet peeves, and what a book coach actually does. If you think you have a book in you, you definitely want to listen closely.

 

Tune into this episode to hear:

  • Debunking common misconceptions about how agents and publishers actually buy books
  • Why following your passion is smarter than trying to follow the market
  • Why she believes there’s room for everyone’s stories, and why not everyone should write a book
  • How a book coach takes you from idea to manuscript or proposal with one on one support you won’t get at an agency or publishing house
