Event Details
At Book Society, we believe writing — like reading and wine — should be both meaningful and enjoyable. And few subjects bring more meaning and enjoyment to the page than food!
Join us for a special two-hour workshop with Dianne Jacob, one of the country's leading food writing coaches and the author of the multiple award-winning Will Write for Food: Pursue Your Passion and Bring Home the Dough Writing Recipes, Cookbooks, Blogs and More. With more than 20 years of experience as a journalist, editor-in-chief, writing coach, and cookbook author, Dianne has helped food writers at every stage get clearer, stronger, and more confident on the page.
Whether you're a food lover who likes to write, a blogger curious about what's next, or a writer drawn to the culinary world, this workshop offers practical insight and inspiration in a welcoming, convivial setting.
In this session, Dianne will touch on:
- Crafting writing with a stronger, more distinctive voice
- The landscape of food writing today — cookbooks, freelancing, newsletters, and beyond
- What it takes to pursue publication and pitch your work
- Writing exercises to get the creative juices flowing
