Storytelling for Grantseekers: A Guide to Creative Nonprofit Fundraising

The book does provide some useful information for grantseekers. I currently work on the grantmaking side of grant writing and agree with the author on certain things to be aware of, include in proposals, etc. I gave it four stars because the writing is a little cheesy and sometimes I find myself weeding through the non-informative stuff to find the good stuff. Overall and easy and informative read for someone starting out in grantseeking/fundraising.

Excellent book.

I loved this book. It was interesting and full of writing information to make the proposals more interesting. By using the storytelling method, the proposal will be easier to read and more natural. However, it doesn't take away from the technical material that has to be in the proposal.I would recommend this book to anyone writing proposals. It will add to the skills that a technical writers already has. It is very easy to read. I didn't want to stop reading it.

I just started grant writing and this is one of my top favorite books because it helps with developing more creative letters and proposals. I would have liked to have seen more examples of Letters of Inquiries. There are also other grant writing books out there too. One of my other favorites is "The only grant writing book you'll ever need".

I honestly only bought this book for a class I'm taking this semester and I haven't even opened it yet. I've heard good things about it, but we haven't needed it at all yet. (and I honestly doubt we will).

This is the second time I am reading this wonderful guide to grantwriting. It's an excellent resource for grant writers, fundraisers and other nonprofit professionals seeking grants. Cheryl Clarke uses the art of storytelling as a framework for writing grants. It's a great way to get your grant in front of funders. I highly recommend this guide.

Very enlightening. This approach to grant writing is creative and encouraging. It helped guide me through the process. It is worth your time.

This is a really good book. Informative, full of helpful, up-to-date information that you can use. Using her ideas, I've gotten great feedback on what I've written.
