Welcome to the Cookbook Lab Chronicles! As I write and self-publish cookbook #2, I’m taking you behind the scenes of the process with a weekly vlog.
To get on the wait list for the Cookbook Lab (revamped self-guided version coming mid-February 2021!), enter your email address below and I’ll send you my guide to help you Determine and Validate Your Cookbook Topic. You’ll also get notified each time a new episode of the Cookbook Lab Chronicles goes up!
Head here to see all of my self-publishing resources.
Things I’m doing differently:
- Not initially self-publishing with Amazon KDP, trying a new platform. If it goes well and I feel like I can recommend it, I’ll be teaching it in the Cookbook Lab!
- Cookbook 2 will be about sous vide, but even niche-ier! Getting specific is important so you’re not competing with the Chrissy Teigens of the world. The specificity also ties back to what I want to be “known for” – bringing sous vide to home cooks.
- I’m going to use influencer marketing this time when I launch the book.
What I’m doing the same:
- Same/approach process (will be sharing more on this soon!). I’m nailing down the format and broad content of the book now.
- (We go into a quick dive of the recipe testing process, too!)
Answering some of your questions:
- How many times do you test a recipe?
- How do you decide what goes on blog vs book?
Exciting news that will change my cookbook writing process next week!
