Is there any money to be made in publishing a cookbook? Just as an unknown personality type person? Or someone here at DC?
Half Baked said:I personally, love to buy this type of cookbook. It's a shame that there isn't a better vehicle to get them advertised in a larger forum than friends, family and the community you are from.
Perhaps DC could have an area for sales; old cookbooks, self published cookbooks, pots, pans, untensils, small appliances, meatball rollers, ginzu knives and other related 'stuff'.

Chipotle Tom said:I've just recently begun putting together family recipes to make into a cookbook. I was not sure how I would publish it, but seeing as it was going to just be for family and friends as a gift, maybe I'll look into that lulu.com thing.
Anybody interested in a cookbook with mostly Irish and German recipes?
Thanks PBear, I've never understood how to that before.PBear42 said:Be sure to use a binding gutter, so the margin on the spine side is larger than the one on the outer edge. (In Word, I do this by setting the left margin half an inch wider than the right, then checking "mirror margins.")
