Writing Nonfiction for the School & Library Market

with Author & Book Packager Lionel Bender

Imagine an expanding writing market that's in constant need of new books.


Where writers like you are making a living without an agent. And without having to do endless promotion.


Where the constant cycle of submission & rejection ends - because the work comes to you!

 

It's not a fantasy. It's very real. Lionel Bender is about to teach you exactly how to become a part of it.

 

Here's the Truth:

 

There are some very happy writers out there who don't get piles of rejection letters, who don't promote themselves on social media, who have no need for an agent and who are getting dozens - even hundreds - of books and magazine articles published.

 

They write nonfiction for the School & Library Market.

 

You can too.

 

Now, in one powerful teaching session, Lionel Bender - author of more than 70 children's nonfiction books - will show you how to break into the growing School & Library Market... and succeed!

 

Lionel isn't just a successful author. He's the editorial partner in a major book packaging company that has created more than 1,000 nonfiction books for classroom use. He's a key player in this market - commissioning more than 100 authors to write these books - and one of the most knowledgeable people on this subject you could possibly meet.

 

In this workshop, he'll provide clear, actionable direction that will help you connect with the right publishers and book packagers, and begin a journey that will connect you directly to young readers.

 

You'll be building a writing career that's actually focused on writing - not promotion & not chasing editors and agents.

 

In this nearly 2 hour workshop, Lionel will teach you exactly what you need to start writing nonfiction for the School & Library Market.


 

In this comprehensive class you'll learn:

 

  • The current state of the School & Library Market.
  • How to understand the key players in the industry - and what they want from writers.
  • How to become part of the pipeline for new book assignments.
  • The specific skills and knowledge you need to succeed.
  • How to create powerful resumes and proposals that will build long-term relationships with publishers and book packagers.
  • The writing process that works best for this market.
  • How to expand your earning potential via school visits, magazine writing and more.

 

 

You'll also get a full PDF handout to accompany the session, that includes:

 

  • Lionel's personal list of top School & Library publishers, book packagers and magazines.
  • Sample Guidelines.
  • Sample Book Synopsis & Action Plan.
  • Sample Editorial Plan.

 

This is a rare chance to learn directly from an expert who knows the School & Library Market inside and out - as an author and as a book packager. Don't miss it!
