Will Write for Food: The Complete Guide to Writing Cookbooks, Blogs, Reviews, Memoir, and More

by Dianne Jacob

Review
I received my copy of Dianne Jacob's book Will Write for Food: The Complete Guide to Writing Cookbooks, Blogs, Reviews, Memoir, and More (Will Write for Food: The Complete Guide to Writing Blogs,) from Amazon on Saturday and I was up reading all night long! Dianne has put into one place all the information that you need if you are ready to learn about "food writing." This book is the one you need on your desk as you go forth to write - no matter if you blog, create recipes, review restaurants or books,or hope to break out with the next new Cooking Bible! And if you have already finished your work Dianne has covered the subject of getting your work published in any one of the ways available to authors today. A look at the Contents page of this book will certainly get you motivated.

Dianne's style is one that makes learning fun and keeps the reader's interest heightened. There is no doubt that she knows what she is writing about, and that only makes this book all the more valuable to one who is hoping to learn. Dianne covers the technical aspects of food writing as well as the artistic and creative voice of the potential author. This one book qualifies as the "best text" and the number one on the "best reads" lists.

Now I am going back into it with my highlighter! So much good, solid information here that I can't afford to miss any of it! I'll be making notes too. I wish for you the same great adventure that I am having!
