How to write a proposal to a literary agent?

Answer by  catysuzgirl2000 (578)

You can write it in the form of a letter, memo or report. If you decide to write it in the form of a project proposal, some guidelines to follow include the specific topic, your rough budget and timeline, the objectives for the project and an abstract of the writing. Be sure to write fluently.

The most important elements to include in your cover letter are a description or summary of the project, a list of what makes it unique or interesting, a list of competing volumes and what differentiates your project from them, a description of the market, and a timeline for completion.

Create a query letter that includes a hook about your book. Tell what the main problem and characters of the story are. Include a brief biography of yourself.

First decided what is the topic. Then determine what are the ideas to cover this topic. Use good and attractive word. Then decided the size of the proposal. You can discuss with literary agent for good ideas. Then write it in simple and attractive way and correct, if any mistake then repeat it, last we get good one.

Keep it short, include your idea in a way that the agent wants more, introduce yourself and close with an acknowledgement for their time and how to reach you.
