Now we’re cookin’!

I’m a big fan of cooking and even bigger fan of eating good cooking. I was thrilled to be a part of the Novel Morsels project, which just debuted this week, and which features recipes borne out of novels and the novelists who wrote them.

This e-book is the yummy creation of Nicole O’Dell; a writer, radio host, teen advocate, and a good friend. Sixty-some authors contributed to this collection of more than 120 recipes. As my fellow contributor and author friend Carla Stewart said, “Some [of these recipes] are found between the covers of our books and have our character’s fingerprints on them. Some are from authors who cope with the rigors of writing by escaping into the kitchen.”

Just looking at the pages makes me hungry! If you’ve read A Sound Among the Trees, you will know why I have included Pearl’s Caramel Cake in this cookbook. I also included Esperanza’s Bifana from The Shape of Mercy and Lucy Day’s Syllabub from Lady In Waiting. Read the complete list of contributing authors right here!

Novel Morsels is available as an e-book on Nicole’s website at the delicious price of just $2.99 and will soon be available for the Kindle, Nook, and iPad. But as a thank you to you,, my lovely blog readers, I will send a secret coupon code to anyone who leaves a comment on this blog post from now until the day before Thanksgiving and you will get the cookbook FREE! Make sure you include your email info in your comment. You can protect your email from bots by putting brackets spelling the word AT and DOT in your email address. 

Don’t forget to post your comment between now and Nov 23 right here on this blog post!
Bon Appetit and all that!

    I love it when authors make food a focus in their novels. Jan Karon has an excellent cookbook based on her Mitford series. Uncle Billy's Sweet Potato Pie is my go-to pumpkin pie replacement.
