8 Truths Rachel Ray Hopes You Never Find Out About Writing a Cookbook

by William Frederick on February 4, 2009

Today begins a brand new 8-part mini-series titled, 8 Truths Rachel Ray Hopes You Never Find Out About Writing a Cookbook. Discovering these 8 Truths will put you well on your way to writing and publishing the cookbook that you’ve been dreaming about.

Truth 1: Many people falsely believe that you need to be a trained chef or a celebrity to write a cookbook. The truth of the matter is, all you need to write a decent cookbook is a good idea, a passion for cooking, and the desire to share both of these with others. Don’t believe me? Prove it to yourself. Browse through the shelves of your local bookstore or library and pay particular attention to the “About the Author” section of the cookbooks. How many of them have formal culinary training? Not as many as you think. In fact, you’re going to find that many of them are written by people just like you.

Already have an idea for your cookbook, a passion for cooking and the desire to share these with others? Great! If not, stick around, by the time you’re done reading this 8-part mini-series you will.

I’ll see you back here tomorrow for Truth 2.
