Loree says:
"I have reached a verbal agreement with Houghton Mifflin and am now waiting for the formal contract to arrive. The editor told me that they were overwhelmed with the detail I had given to the project and that it was these materials (the book proposal) that convinced them to acquire the book. The class truly helped me focus on my project and sell my first book. Thanks to you for helping me to be so prepared."
 
Roberta Carasso, Ph.D says:
"Patricia Fry taught a terrific book proposal class. It clarified how to create and polish all the necessary components of a proposal. She was consistently dedicated and helpful, always attentive to my writing needs. Now I eagerly look forward to submitting the manuscript and am far more confident that, with Patricia's good advice, the book will become a reality."
