Mastering the Trade Book — Santa Cruz

At our retreats, you’ll learn how to:

  • Find an agent

  • Write a killer non-fiction book proposal for a commercial publisher

  • Craft elegant, unforgettable prose that blasts off the page – and straight into the hearts of agents, publishers and (ultimately) readers

  • Stop wasting time on dead-end scholarly questions and esoteric “stakes” that no one outside academia cares about

  • Kill jargon where it starts – inside your head, your heart and your inner insecure grad student

  • Build your social media platform and become THE public voice in your field

  • Successfully pitch and write op-eds for major national and local media
