113: Food, Romance, and Fiction with Sarah Chamberlain

Today things get a little bit spicy and steamy as Kate and Molly speak with debut romance writer Sarah Chamberlain. Sarah shares her experience working to "American-ize" foreign cookbooks and how she brought that food world expertise to her fiction writing. She discusses stepping into the romance world (reading and writing), the inspirations for her novel and how she landed on the cookbook details that were central to the plot and character development. Finally, she talks about the role food can play in fiction and where she sees this done well before giving us a sneak peak at her next book and some advice she has for aspiring writers in the food world.Hosts: Kate Leahy + Molly Stevens + Kristin Donnelly + Andrea NguyenEditor: Abby Cerquitella MentionsEpisode 63: On Rejection and Recovery Sarah ChamberlainWebsiteInstagram Susan Elizabeth PhillipsMarian KeyesSarah MacLeanMhairi McFarlane Visit the Everything Cookbooks Bookshop to purchase a copy of the books mentioned in the showThe Slowest Burn by Sarah ChamberlainA Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty SmithLike Water for Chocolate by Laura EsquivelMy Side of the Mountain by Jean Craighead GeorgeAll-of-a-Kind Family by Sydney TaylorDial A for Aunties by Jesse Q.
