SELL, DESIGN, WRITE

not design, write, sell

Don't write only to discover readers aren't interested.Assess reader interest first and improve your writing's commercial prospects.

We recommend 4 key steps (in the following order):

1. Sell your manuscript idea/concept. You use a market validation version of your book. Before you invest all that time writing and rewriting, test-market your book. Prove reader interest.

2. Design (plan) your manuscript according to the feedback you received from your personally selected raters.

3. Write your manuscript (now that you've verified reader interest).

4. Write stronger manuscripts and Book Proposals with proven market interest.

This can be done affordably. By the way, your raters remain anonymous and enjoy privacy.

"What a great method of validating markets for my writing! I was able to test markets before I looked for an Agent (and a publisher). I was able to prove its marketability."
