HOW IT WORKS  --  The Proposal Process

Based on feedback from our publishers and book proposal professionals, we have prepared a 12-question easy-to-navigate application that will create a professional book proposal for your book idea.

For only $98, you will be able to immediately access this application and start work on your book proposal.  In fact, you may edit your proposal – making sure your proposal is exactly what you want to present to publishers – before you make it ACTIVE and viewable by publishers. 

Once you have completed your proposal, simply click "Submit to Publishers" and your proposal will be made immediately available to Christian publishers for review. Your proposal will remain in the system for 6 months from the date you choose to “Submit” it. If you need to review and edit your proposal, simply re-enter the system with your user name and password.

OR CHOOSE The Professional Review and Critique Process NOW

If you are interested in receiving professional review and critique of your proposal before you submit it to publishers, consider the options below in addition to submitting your manuscript to the Christian Manuscript Submissions database.

Many authors would benefit from extra help from industry veterans to prepare a book proposal that stands out from the crowd and appeals to publishers and agents. We recommend the following critique services provided by the publishing professionals at BelieversPress in collaboration with D.C. Jacobson & Associates. Learn more.

If you choose one of the options below, you will create your proposal per general guidelines above. Then, at the close of your proposal entry you will send the proposal to your professional literary consultant for review and critique. Your consultant will provide you service within two weeks. You may then edit your online proposal as recommended and submit it to the publishers. Read author testimonials.
