Cookbook Editorial Services

As the author of 14 cookbooks,  published by national publishers since 1996, I have expertise in organization, proper style, technical know-how, and manuscript preparation.

 

I can also help you prepare a professional proposal for your cookbook, and advise you on how to acquire an agent or publisher.

 

E-mail  me if you need help with:

 

Publishing Goals

  • Determine a clear  publishing goal

  • Assess the status and quality of your manuscript

  • Make recommendations for a work plan; agree on fees and timeline

Organization

  • Assess the credibility and viability of your content

  • Point out organizational problems and awkward, turgid, or repetitive sections

  • Spot awkward or confusing sections

  • Eliminate duplication or redundancy

  • Write transitions and summaries as needed

Copyediting and Proofreading

  • Assess general accuracy (can check facts, if requested)

  • Copyediting and proofreading according to the Chicago Manual of Style

  • Correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation

  • Consistent capitalization, numbering, and other styles

  • Heads and subheads

  • Front and back matter

Let's talk about your cookbook project!
