Writing Non-Fiction

I haven’t had any of my non-fiction published-yet! However, I am as interested in writing non-fiction as I am in writing fiction. In the non-fiction space, I am particularly interested and drawn towards works on military history and psychology, amongst other areas. How do you go about making a non-fiction project , to start with ?  Sharing some tips from those who are expert in their fields:

The first place to start is to make a book proposal. If the proposal doesn’t fly, it’s unlikely that your non-fiction work will  ever see the light of day. Maria Vicente, Associate Literary Agent at P S Literary Agency shares what should constitute the “7 Sections of a Non-Fiction Book Proposal.” I believe such articles are very useful to those who may not know the ropes, so to speak. Thank, Maria for giving us such a lot of information in a concise manner. Which reminds me, I think the toughest part of non-fiction writing is to be able to write concisely without beating about the bush.
