If You Only Read One Book on Grant Writing, This Is the One to Read!
ByJoy L. Jurrieson March 6, 2017
Format: Paperback
As a newcomer in the field of grant writing, I have been reading every book on the subject I can get my hands on. This new book by Waddy Thompson offers far more useful information than any other that I've read. I don't recall any book I've read in the last few years that has generated more ideas in my head and notes on my legal pad than this one.
Chock full of helpful resources, links, and sample proposals, this book is more than just a primer on grant writing. Not only does it contain grant writing basics for newbies such as myself, it ventures into areas I have not seen addressed in other books, such as sponsorships and freelancing. This could easily be another dry book on the subject, but Mr. Thompson's conversational writing style makes this book a very fun read.
The day I ordered this book, I had attended a three hour seminar on beginning grant writing at a local university. If I had read this book beforehand, I could have saved $60 tuition. Truthfully, I have learned so much more from this book than I have from any other source.
