There's never been a better time to buy my cookbook! The hardback is currently on sale on Amazon.com for only $5.72 – that's a huge 77% saving ? They even ship to the UK as well.
Halloumi like you've never seen it before! All kinds of vegetarian feasts, for brunch, dinner and parties (the three food groups), showcasing this unique cheese in all its chewy delight.
Hi Nancy,
I read the interview you did with Feast Design on self-publishing your own cookbook. I think that is the route I will be going.
Did you design your book just in Mac Pages? I am considering In Design but wondering if that is overkill. Did you hire anyone else, like someone to do the index?
Thanks for sharing your cookbook journey! If you come up with a dairy-free version of haloumi I would love it!!!
Hello Cristina! So pleased you're interested in my experiences.
I designed the whole thing in Pages 09 – still my favourite word processor even though it's well out of date now. I do bits and pieces with InDesign, but if you're not familiar with it, I think it can really slow you down. Now you might want to take this opportunity to both learn InDesign and how to publish a cookbook – I think that's perfectly valid if you have use for both knowledge sets in the future. But if you don't really need InDesign, it's so much easier to lay things out in Pages (the new one is fine as well I think).
I did the index myself, I love organising information like that, so it was one of my favourite bits of the project!
