Testimonials
What my clients say...
When I conducted my research on how to develop a book proposal, I quickly learned that I was in foreign territory. I read guides and articles, but they did not provide me with enough guidance to produce a proposal that I would have confidence using until I met Diane O'Connell. Diane provided me with a format to use and the specific recommendations for content for each section that facilitated my ability to write a proposal that would make sense. Her feedback and edits were invaluable and led to the production of a Book Proposal that I would feel confident in sending to anyone. I would not have been able to accomplish this without Diane's support. By working with Diane, I learned about the book proposal process, the steps afterwards, and how the publishing industry works. Diane was an excellent coach and tutor and I feel more confident about what I am doing based upon my work with her.
