This is possibly a good book HarperCollins Publishers but I think it’s so frustrating for #writers to see big publishers regularly taking on books from celebrities, when it’s so hard for the average writer to even have a chance of their work being seen by a big publisher. The gate keeping process of literary agents creates such a big barrier to entry for most writers, and it seems to me to be quite an unfair process. I’m a writer, and I’m also a highly experienced digital marketing specialist - and I don’t think it’s just writers that are missing out by things working this way. Self publishing offers so many opportunities these days, and things are changing fast - I personally think if big publishers offered another route - such as regular ‘pitch days’ - all sorts of opportunities could open up on both the side of writers and big publishers - just my thought for a Thursday evening 😉

Creating a kids' cookbook is a wonderful idea! Been on my mind for years, it can be a fun and educational way to teach children about cooking, nutrition, and the joy of preparing food. Younger children (ages 4-7) simpler, more supervised recipes, while older kids (ages 8-12) for more complexity and independence in the kitchen. So many themes to work from. Happy cooking.

What a surprise! Another person famous for acting muscles in on the space for writers - which is already a tight squeeze!!!!

Why do actors choose picture book authoring or hard alchohol sales as their side hustle? 🤔
