I just borrowed this book from my local library. I haven't gone through every bit, but so far it's extremely helpful -- speaking here as one who's never written an official proposal. (at least not yet) Proposal Planning and Writing, second edition by Miner, Miner, and Griffith. ORYX press, 1998 my library's call number: 658.15224 It has a sort of workbook format and is up to date as far as using the internet (many URLs). It covers all types of documents like government grants, corporate funding and private donations. Also outlines appropriate procedures, gives tips, and critiques sample proposals. I'd recommend it to anyone searching for help in making their project happen -- such as a charitable, educational, LEGO-related endeavor. :-) But even if you have a project that doesn't require an official proposal, you'd probably benefit from flipping through this, or something like it. If nothing else, it asks tough questions. nitty gritty, clear focus, ultimate purpose, reality checking stuff. Any other suggested sources of help in proposal writing? -Suz ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This and related books are available at Amazon.com ---n---o---t---e------------------------------------------------------------- LUGNET participates in the Amazon.com Associates Program.
