For this workshop, 4–5 UI faculty members will submit book proposal drafts for a collaborative feedback session led by the Editor-in-Residence. The session—which will take place on Weds. November 5, from 8:30am-12:30pm at the Obermann Center—is designed to help authors write a compelling book proposal, with a focus on crafting a strong pitch, identifying target audiences, and outlining the project’s structure. The workshop’s goal is for participants to walk away with a strong and cohesive book proposal, increasing their chance of securing a book deal. Applications are due October 1 by 5:00 p.m. Faculty members accepted to the workshop will be required to email their 10-page proposal to the Obermann Center by October 22.
