You Have the Recipes, the Experience, and the Passion But You're Stuck 

  • You've been thinking about your cookbook for months (or years)
  • You don't know where to start
  • You're overwhelmed by all the options (traditional? self-publishing? hybrid?)
  • You're second-guessing your concept, your audience, your angle
  • You're waiting for the  perfect time  (spoiler: it's not coming)
  • You're stuck in the information loop—gathering advice but not making progress

The cost of staying stuck: Another year of dreaming instead of doing. Another year of keeping your expertise hidden.

Cookbook Writing Foundations 


A 4-week intensive program designed to help you make the 4 foundational decisions BEFORE you write a single recipe.
What makes this program different:
  • You're not just learning, you're deciding
  • You're not gathering more information; you're creating a strategic plan
  • You're not doing this alone; you're getting expert guidance and community support

Here's Everything You Get When You Enroll: 

âś… 4 Weekly LIVE Sessions
(one lesson per week, focusing on WHY, WHO, WHAT, HOW)

âś… Lifetime Access to All Recordings
(revisit anytime, at your own pace)

Here's What We'll Cover Each Week: 

Week 1: WHY
Define why you want to write a cookbook. 
Shape how you and your cookbook are perceived in the market. Differentiate yourself with your unique personality and authority.

Week 2: WHO
Discover who your cookbook is for and how to appeal directly to their needs and desires.

Week 3: WHAT
Understand the essence of your cookbook and develop a unique, compelling theme that stands out.

Week 4: HOW

DAL CHAWAL

I can't believe I am a published author with my first cookbook, Dal Chawal. I first learned about my agent in your class and wished to work with her someday. I feel truly blessed to have her an agent and a publisher. The last few years have been quite testing for me with life changes personally. And, I couldn't have accomplished the task of writing a cookbook without the incredible support and team on my side throughout this process. Thank you for the group and for being one of my first guides sharing your wisdom on what it means to be a cookbook author, and showing me around what the world of cookbook publishing looks like.

MODERN MOUNTAIN COOKBOOK

As a new author, I was fortunate enough to work with Maggie as I developed the Modern Mountain Cookbook. Although I had a clear idea of which recipes would be included, with Maggie’s help, I gained new insight and developed what I would call my inner philosophy about why food and cooking for others is so important to me. Cookbooks are more than recipes. They are windows into our heritage, our history,  and our hearts. Nobody understands this more than Maggie!

YOUNG RUNNER'S GUIDE TO NUTRITION 

One of the most important takeaways from Maggie’s Get Paid to Get Published program was learning how to really understand who my audience was. Through workshopping and guided exercises, I was able to narrow my focus, and once I did that, the project started to flow. The structure Maggie provided for proposal development gave me the clarity and confidence to move the project forward. It was also valuable to hear from other cookbook writers; listening to their stories and goals gave me a sense of connection and motivation to keep going.
