#FridayReads, Jan. 25–Book Proposals from Prospective Author Clients

#FridayReads, Jan. 25–I’ll pick up a proper book or two this weekend, but today’s been devoted to reading book proposals by authors I may be working with as their representative under the banner of my company, Philip Turner Book Productions. I’m delighted to have come upon some good really book ideas, with proposals on such topics as 1) a treatable human malady that affects tens of millions and is often misdiagnosed; 2) a comprehensive investigative account of a notorious murder of a journalist, whose author lays knowledge of the crime at the feet of a well-known politician, now deceased; 3) a book about women’s empowerment by a well-credentialed female expert that has appeal to a large audience; 4) an anthology of classic fiction of a sort that’s never before been assembled in this fashion; 5) a graphic memoir by an artist/author with a singular and engrossing story to draw and narrate.

Yes, it’s been a productive and enjoyable day of professional reading.
