 On the episode of the Book Proposal Podcast, Debra Eckerling answers the question, “Should I submit my book proposal in December?” The short answer is no. That's also the long answer. Unless you get a specific request for you book proposal, wait until after the holidays to send it out. In the publishing world, especially when it comes to acquisitions, everything winds down between Thanksgiving and New Years. Everyone is extra busy with holiday obligations while they're trying to wrap up the work year, or they're just taking time off. Anything you send now will likely stay in a publisher's inbox for at least a month, and it could even get lost in there, buried beneath new submissions that come in the beginning of January. There are plenty of things you can do in December to build up your book proposal, including building up your author platform and scheduling more speaking and press. You can also attend holiday parties, so you meet new people and expand your network. It is in your best interest to wait until the second week in January before sending a proposal out to agents or publishers. They’ll be back in the swing of things - relaxed, refreshed, and excited to read your proposal.
