 The Original Idea—The Core of Writing and
Selling Your Book and Idea
Mercer Island Library, Wednesday, June 04, 7pm

Can you say what your book is about in 25 words of less? This is essential
to both writing a tight book and selling it. We will discuss ways to
find and state your original idea so that you stay on course while
writing the book and excite those you tell when trying to sell it.
Bob Mayer is the NY Times Best-Selling author of over 35 books, both
fiction and nonfiction with over 3 million books in print. He is the
author of The
Novel Writers Toolkit: A Guide to Writing Great Fiction and Getting
It Published. His bestselling novels include The Atlantis
Lost Series and Don’t Look Down and Agnes & the Hitman written
with Jennifer Crusie.
