I’ve just been through the exercise of helping a friend with the last stages of her book. In this case it was:
- Planning test readers (it is a non-fiction book)
- Updating her CV
- Writing a good initial approach to publishers
- Getting a good book synopsis together
- Determining which publishers to approach and in what order
- Making a start on a website to support the book
It was an interesting process and good practice for me, as I am incorporating the last suggested additions from my test readers into my own first book (also non-fiction) before sending the first lot of letters off to publishers.
Writing the book is really only the start of an involved process.
