Product Description
Pamela White, publisher of the only periodical that focuses on food writing, has turned her original food writing class into a self-study course. In six lessons, the students learn to pitch columns, write articles, query magazines successfully, review restaurants, and write food essays and memoirs. The bonus chapters include tips on styling and photographing food, essential information on copyrights, selling rights and trademarks, and insider advice editors want writers to know. Each lesson includes assignments that guide the writer to successfully understand the lesson.

Customer Reviews
Sold my first article 
As a long time reader of Food Writing, the ezine, (published by the book's author) I wanted to have this self-study course to help me on my way. There are six lessons, each with a different focus, and assignments that require some serious work. I am now a professional writer thanks to the lessons in this book. The book provides a road map to writing articles and reviews that sell. Besides the six lessons there is a load of information that all writers need. A bonus: several pages of magazines to sell my food writing to. Highly recommend.
Clear, Resourceful and, above all, HELPFUL!
Aside from possessing the above-mentioned qualities, this book is also incredibly encouraging and positive, while simultaneously maintaining a practical, realistic approach. I really enjoyed the writer's commitment to providing me with websites, exercises, things to watch out for and encouragement. The writing is very clear and concise, well-researched and exciting - yes, exciting! It has a motivational quality that makes me want to get out there and do it! I highly recommend this book to anyone even remotely considering writing about food!
The Perfect Guide to Kickstart a New Career
Pam White has an uncanny way of presenting her material that makes it fun, understandable, and approachable. I retired from a 25-year career in high tech and used Pam's book as a guide to launch a new career as a food writer. The book helped me think of markets, guided me in writing, and has led me to several freelance writing opportunities. If you want to be a food writer, there isn't any better way to get started!
