My Big Beautiful Book Plan [Review]

In the past couple of years we have seen a ton of bloggers publishing books. This move from a digital to traditional publishing model has sparked endless conversation in the digital space.

A year ago I landed a book agent because of a project that I had started on my blog. I have slowly been trying to figure out what my book might look like and wading through the many questions that I have had along the way.

What does a book proposal look like? How much of an advance can I expect? How can I be a successful author? How do I get the attention of a big publisher?

I am fortunate to be good friends with a number of both published and self-published authors. I have spent hours picking their brain and trying to figure out what I wanted to do.

A couple of weeks ago Danielle LaPorte and Linda Silversten released Your Big Beautiful Book Plan–a book & workbook combo that includes book proposals that landed six-figure advances with top literary agents and advice from best-selling authors including Tim Ferris and Gretchen Rubin. This program also includes over eight hours of audio and video interviews with agents and high-profile authors.

I reached out to Danielle to see if I could review a copy of Your Big Beautiful Book Plan. I have spent the past year researching the publishing arena and asking countless questions so I was curious to see if the program really lived up to all of its hype.

I spent the past two days digging through the material and still have so much more to go. When I began writing my book a good friend and published author shared her book proposal with me so I could get a sense of what I needed to create. Without that road map I would have no idea what I needed to include in a book proposal.

Your Big Beautiful Book Plan walks you through every step of the publishing process and answers your questions along the way. You learn how to write a query letter, understand the market, create a successful marketing plan, leverage your books to further your career and so much more.

The investment is a little high on this e-book but the quality of content in this program really lived up to my expectations. I guarantee that you will never need to read another book about becoming a published author. This has answers to literally every question you might have. I highly recommend this for anyone who has an idea for a book and is serious about writing one.

Now I want to hear from you!
