Poetry Book Proposal Letter Samples

1-

I am writing this letter regarding the book I recently wrote. I have come to know about your publishing house via my teacher Mr. Samuel Johnson. He published his recent collection of poetry from your publishing house, and it was a huge success. I might not be able to become the author of the year, but I am a potential writer. I have written and compiled my collection of poetry and want to get it published.

I came to know from my teacher that you always consider and appreciate young talent looking for publication. He also told me the story of this publishing house that came into being when no one published your book the idea hit my mind that there are many potential writers out there who want to be known for the content they produce but do not get any such platform. You became one such platform and provided the young writers with the spirit to publish.

I consider myself that potential young talent. I have enclosed my manuscript with this letter. Kindly go through it and give me your precious guidance and recommendation. Also, I have a few queries regarding the format of the book.

1. Will it be sent in Microsoft Word or any other software will be used?
2. I would like to type the book myself.
3. I will design the cover of my book myself. Also, if I take your assistance what will be the charges?
4. I have heard you offer memberships, is it important or mandatory for me to become a member of your publishing house to get my work published?
5. How will I be applying for ISBN no? Will you get one for me? What will be the charges for it?
6. What will be the total cost of publication?

I hope you will respond to my queries at your earliest. I look forward to hearing from you. Awaiting your positive response. You may write to me on my email x or give me a call at my number x. Thanking you in advance.

Regards,

I hope everything is well at your end. My name is Zack Snyder and I am working as a creative writing teacher at X institute. I have written a book of poetry and want to send it to you for the process of publication.

Most of my work has already been published in different international journals and magazines but I won’t get a collection this time. I have enclosed my manuscript with this letter.

My poetry revolves around the topic of revolution, nostalgia, independence, and trauma. Please give it a read and let me know your take on it. Moreover, I would like to know about your services. Are you offering typing service? Most of my work is handwritten and I want to avail this service. Also, guide me about the additional charges it may cost me.

What will be the total cost of the publication? I may go for crowdfunding for the process of publication. Please guide me about it too.

I look forward to hearing from you soon. You may reach me at my number x or drop an email on x. Awaiting your positive response.

Regards,
