Book Marketing for Non-Fiction – Cooking
Ingredients, recipes, tips and tricks from experts, personal responses and amazing experiences – all of these converge in the world of cooking, and all of these are shared through cooking books! Excellent recipes, cooking tips, guides – these are all the important ingredients one needs to create the perfect cookbook. And, of course, one very important ingredient – feedback and response from your readers and fellow cooks. Constant reviewing and constant “re-cooking” makes for a better dish- er, cook book!
Below, you’ll find links where you can market your cooking book, find resources, and of course, find communities where you can share your own insights and experiences.
