About a month ago I wrote on Twitter that I was looking for advice about how to write a book proposal. I am revising my dissertation into a book manuscript and wanted to begin writing a book proposal to circulate to academic presses. I do not currently work in a university and had no idea where to start, so I put a call out on Twitter. I received so many wonderful responses that I decided to compile them all in a Twitter story and post it here. The most interesting revelation was the diversity of responses I received. It seems there really are many different ways to successfully compose a book proposal that will be accepted by a university press.

I hope others will benefit (as I already have) from all this generous advice. The Twitter story can be found by clicking the link below:
