“I count myself immeasurably fortunate to have stumbled upon Lucinda's [programs] in the nascent days of my book journey… The program was invaluable. I loved how her evergreen courses demystified the end-to-end proposal process—from "big idea" to platform-building to publisher submission—and were coupled with Lucinda's bespoke feedback on every part of my proposal as I drafted it. Lucinda is an aspiring author's secret weapon. By August, I was thrilled to be offered representation… and by December, I had a book deal!”
