Write a simple sentence that

  1. Articulates something you believe strongly in.
  2. Articulates the experience you want your writing to create for others.

Your reader’s experience should describe transformation, i.e., how a reader changed months after reading your book. You can use the following questions to think about this:

  • What do you want them to think quietly in their heads about the world you have opened for them?
  • How does it relate to their life, their identity, their interactions?

Try to be as clear and as unshakeable as possible.
