Get Your Novel Published!

It’s every writer’s dream: write the Great American Novel and get it published by a mainstream publishing house.

Dear Novelist:

Every writer – and countless non-writers as well – dreams of one day writing and publishing the Great American Novel.

Well, my friend and colleague Hunter Shea has hit it big-time as a prolific novelist.

He has written 17 novels, all published by traditional publishing houses.

I am a huge fan of Hunter’s novels, including Loch Ness Revenge (Severed Press) … Forest of Shadows (Samhain) … The Montauk Monster (Pinnacle Books) … and Tortures of the Damned (Pinnacle).

(And yes, as the titles give away, his niche is horror and suspense.)

Now, Hunter reveals his secrets for writing paperbound novels that mainstream publishers, editors, and book buyers love – in his ebook, How to Write and Sell Your Novel to a Traditional Publishing House.

In it, you will discover:

But wait. There’s more.

Another colleague, Lisa Mondello, is also a prolific and successful published novelist.

Lisa published her first novel in 1998, and is a New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author of contemporary romance and gripping romantic suspense.

I’m proud to be her publisher for Selling Your Novel: a Beginner’s Guide to Writing a Novel and Getting It Published.

And when you order Hunter’s ebook How to Write and Sell Your Novel to a Traditional Publishing House…

… you also get a second ebook to give you more strategies on selling your novel to a publisher, Lisa’s Selling Your Novel.

In Selling Your Novel, Lisa doesn’t offer to critique your writing, give you plot ideas, line-edit your book, or teach you the art of writing fiction.

Lisa and I assume you either dream of writing and publishing a novel … or are working on a novel right now … or plan to soon.

So while Hunter tells you how to write your novel, Lisa focuses 100% on what it takes in today’s marketplace to SELL a novel … and get it into print, into bookstores, and into the hands of eager readers.

Little-known novel marketing secrets – revealed at last

We all know what novels look like and sound like, because we’ve all read them.

But there are other tools you need to market your novel manuscript … and convince a publisher to take it on.

These include a powerful, persuasive query letter to gain the attention of potential literary agents … another query letter aimed at publishers … a short-form synopsis summarizing the plot in brief … and a long-form synopsis or chapter outline describing your story in far greater detail.

You’ve probably never seen any of these documents before, which makes it difficult to create your own.

But don’t worry. In Selling Your Novel, Lisa not only reprints the full text of actual query letters and synopses she and other authors have used to sell their novels to publishers….

She also takes you step-by-step through the query and synopsis writing process – so you can create these essential sales tools to sell your own novel to a publisher in record time.

But that’s not all….

Everything you need to become a published novelist is at your fingertips

In just 55 tightly written pages, Lisa Mondello – in her guide to selling your novel – takes you step by step through the process of becoming a published novelist.

She holds nothing back, and lays bare her proven methods of writing great fiction … getting it out into the market … and convincing a publisher to turn your words into a published novel.

Including:

How to write a one-page letter that convinces a publisher to buy your novel … before you’ve even finished writing it. Page 11.
Why you need to start your novel in the middle of the action – and tell the background story later on. Page 19.
5 questions every editor asks when deciding whether to publish your novel – and how to give the right answer to each. Page 18.
How to find the right publisher for your novel by looking for their name in your local bookstore. Page 9.
The most common mistake unpublished novelists make. Publishers will reject your novel until you fix it. Page 19.
Can you sell your novel without representation from a literary agent? The answer may surprise you. Page 21.
The 24-hour rule for responding to a rejection letter from a publisher. Page 30.
The publishing mistake that cost Nancy Drew author Millie Benson millions of dollars in lost royalties. Page 38.
