In SPIRITUAL WRITING, writer and literary agent Deborah Levine Herman and publisher Cynthia Black demystify the process and show writers how to create a book that both remains true to their vision and still conforms to the protocols of the publishing industry.
An Invaluable Resource For All Aspiring Writers Deborah Levine Herman, with the help of Publisher Cynthia Black,has created a book brimming with invaluable information for all writers. The first part of the book firmly guides us through the inner process of writing a spiritual book replete with inspiring examples and exercises to help us clarify our intention and progress along our path. Then we are inundated with clear, concise ways to maximize our chances of getting our work published. This includes how to organize one’s vision, create marketable angles, query letters & proposals without sacrificing our message, and finally providing us with spirit friendly resources including agents and publishers. A must read!
An absolute must for 1st time authors… As an author that is half-way through theprocess of having their 1st time book published I can say without qualification that THISis the book I’d wish I’d read before beginning the process. Notonly is it packed with invaluable information and guidance but also manages to help keep the new author in emotional and psychological balance with brilliant and insightful humor at thecrucial junctures. The resources cited within the book are alsoessential material for anyone considering wandering down the rocky road that is getting your book published. After reading several other helpful books about getting one’s book publishedI am quite certain that I could have skipped all the rest andread Spiritual Writing which would have saved considerable eye strain and, kept my spirits light at the same time. Highest kudos to Herman and Black on a super writing the tool for 1st time authors.
Great for anyone trying to publish a nonfiction book! Spiritual Writing is the clearest, most helpful book I’ve ever read about getting nonfiction books published. Despite the title, I think it’s perfect for anyone who is trying to publish an unusual, personal book.
