Write a Book

Do you want to write a cookbook that can change someone’s health, relationships, or financial situation. Maybe your audience needs to lower their blood pressure, connect with their kids, or save money on food and eating out. What ever they need you have the opportunity to help them and provide your audience with the transformation they need from a Cookbook.

Programs

Mastermind groups use the power of many minds (in the group) to problem solve, brain storm and set goals. In her Hungry For A Cookbook Mastermind Group, Maggie offers members the opportunity to write their cookbook or cookbook proposal in a Mastermind Group Setting.

Podcast

Maggie’s favorite part of being a cookbook author is the people she meets at signings and events. To bring the cookbook story full circle (from reading, to editing, and writing), Maggie’s podcast Cookbook Love Podcast celebrates cookbook readers, buyers, collectors, and clubs.
