My Cookbook
I am currently writing my first cookbook proposal, based on my my wacky, 4- foot tall, buttered-cracker lovin’, stubborn grandmother, Mother Lovett.
You can read more about Mother Lovett here:

Yes, writing this book proposal is scary. I have asked myself many times ‘Why me?‘
Well, ‘Why not me?’
We are all capable of anything we put our mind to. I encourage you to follow those dreams and make them a reality.
I grew up with my nose in a book. Walking into a bookstore these days still gives me an astounding, exciting rush. I spent my teen years reading series such as The Babysitter’s Club and Sweet Valley High.
I am a daydreamer and romantic at heart. I aspire to one day write a fiction series for young adults that intrigues, inspires, let’s them know they are normal and beautiful, and makes them laugh.

What a wonderful idea. I will definitely buy that book!
Jess this is amazing! Good luck with the cookbook
WOW! Mother Lovett is a genius! Thanks for sharing!
Very inspiring! I want to get my book published too so I know how hard the process is.
I used to love Sweet Valley High and Babysitters Club. I think I read each and every single one out there!
You can do it. You have amazing and beautiful and wonderful recipes… I will buy one!!
Jessica…hope all is going well…I also have a dream of writing up a cookbook. Any tidbits on how to get started on a proposal??? Thanks so much!
I’m so glad that my publisher essentially found me — I’ve seen proposals… they are so intimidating! I wouldn’t have known where to start if it didn’t just fall in my lap… I’m thankful for that! Good for you to follow your dream. I wish you success.
WOw! just saw this (have you had this page for long?) and I’m so excited for you! I will buy your cookbook, no questions asked.
