printable version
I'm knee deep in email this week so I'm once again sharing snippets of some of the worst book proposals we've ever received. We hope you get a giggle from them like we did. Yes, these are real!
THE COLLEGE GRADUATE
I did this very successfully for 14 years--payed my way through college!
THE REDUNDANT AUTHOR
This book has wide mass appeal.
AFTER RECEIVING A REJECTION
Remember my name!!!!!!!
DOESN'T SPELLING COUNT IN POETRY?
I notice that you do not except poetry. I have researchs some of the other self publishers. And you are the only decent folks I have come across. If i can get a buisness address, i can write and convince you why you should make an exception in my case. Thanks.
THIS ONE LEFT ME SPEECHLESS...
As owner you be da boss and I be da jerk! I' m gonna tell my mommy that you won' t publish my book--so there!
For more smiles, the previous installment of World's Worst Book Proposals appears HERE.
