This fast-paced workshop covers the basics: query letters, writing articles for newspapers and magazines, food book and cookbook proposals, ebooks, recipe writing, restaurant reviewing, blogging, etc. It is intended as a brief introduction for those interested in entering the field.

He is the editor of the Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America, has edited or authored more than 20 books, and has written more than 1000 articles on culinary topics.
