Learn what it takes to get a literary agent or publisher in today’s changing market!

There’s the book you want to write and the book a publisher – and readers – will buy: Are they the same book?

Literary agents receive 1500+ manuscripts a month. Publishers receive 10,000+ manuscripts a year. If you want to get a publishing deal and more readers, you’ve got to know what publishers (and readers) buy and how to make your book stand out from the pack.

Randy Peyser, CEO of Author One Stop, Inc., www.AuthorOneStop.com. a national publishing consulting firm, pitches books to agents and publishers. Her company also provides editing and ghostwriting services. Additionally, Randy is also a master of the book proposal. Recently, she helped a first-time author get a 6-figure advance in a bidding war between 3 large houses. Currently, 33 people are under contract with agents or publishers she has found for them.
