Your step-by-step class to writing a cookbook—from idea to full book proposal
In this 8-week online class, you’ll go from confusion to clarity with the exact steps you need to take to write—and publish—your cookbook. Before I tell you about this comprehensive class, I want to tell you who I created this class for:
You’re a chef, a home cook, a mixologist, or simply a lover of food. You’ve dreamed about writing a cookbook for years. You have recipes swirling around your mind and written down in notebooks. You have a Word doc where you started writing down your favorite recipes, perhaps with stories attached to each. You love to cook, create, and feed your loved ones. You have a certain style of cooking, use certain techniques that you love, or enjoy a specific kind of cuisine. You’ve thought about writing a cookbook, but…you don’t know how to bring it all together into a book. Yet, it’s a goal you want to achieve and you’d love to know how.
Perhaps you’re:
A chef or you work in a restaurant. You’ve been cooking for years and would love to write a book, to bring all your recipes together so you can share them with the world
A home cook with a passion for cooking. Your friends and family may have said, “You’re food is so good, you should write a book.”
A food blogger who wants to compile all of your recipes into a book
A mixologist or cocktail blogger with drink recipes to share
Someone who simply loves food, love to cook, love to eat, loves to explore certain types of food and you want to share that love with others.
You're in the right place. I want to teach you exactly how you can achieve this important goal of yours. I will show you the specific steps to take so you can finally, now, write this book that's been on your mind for months, possibly years.
By the end of this class you will have:
Nailed down your niche and decide what kind of cookbook you will write
Come up with the title and subtitle of your book
Written an introduction to attract agents
Organize your recipes into chapters

Discovered must-haves for your book proposal
