105 Authors Share Dessert Recipes
and Advice on Love and Writing
What do most authors
have in common, no matter what genre they write? They love desserts. Sweets
sustain them through pending deadlines and take the sting out of crushing
rejection letters and nasty reviews. They also often celebrate their successes—selling
a book, winning a writing award, making a bestseller list, or receiving a
fabulous review—with decadent indulgences. And when authors chat with each
other, they often talk about their writing and their lives. Recipes. Writing.
Relationships. In this cookbook 105 authors not only share their favorite
recipes for fabulous cakes, pies, cookies, candy, and more, they also share the
best advice they’ve ever received on love and writing.
A percentage of the
profit from Bake, Love, Write is donated to NoKidHungry.org.
