In episode 563, June Dick teaches us how to make the process of self-publishing a cookbook easy and efficient and how to avoid the mistakes she made.
June is the recipe developer and photographer for her food blog, Practically Homemade. Here you will find simple recipes for everyday families inspired by years of being a restaurant owner, high school culinary teacher and mom of 4. Now as an empty nester, June is still looking for shortcut ingredients and kitchen hacks to save time in the kitchen. Her life mission is to share them with you so that you can have time back in your life to enjoy the little things.
In this episode, you’ll learn about what June thinks went really well during her self-publishing process, what she would do differently and how to get help from your audience to put a cookbook together.
Key points discussed:
- Plan ahead for a cookbook project: Think about the end product and work backwards to plan the steps, rather than jumping right into creating recipes.
- Establish a consistent recipe format: Create a template for recipes to ensure consistency throughout the book.
- Involve your audience: Reach out to your audience for recipe testing. This can provide valuable feedback and help build excitement for the book.
- Consider outsourcing tasks: Outsource tasks that you don’t enjoy doing (e.g. layout, photography, editing), to free up your time for the parts you enjoy.
- Expect the unexpected: Be flexible as there might be unexpected changes you need to make.
- Prioritize your blog: Plan ahead and schedule out your blog content so you can focus on your cookbook project without going into burnout.
- Choose a topic you're passionate about: Select a topic you truly enjoy, as you'll be working on it for an extended period.
- Be patient with the process: Self-publishing a cookbook takes longer than expected, so be be patient and persistent.
