134: Cookbooks as a Career with Maria Zizka

Kate and Kristin speak with cookbook author Maria Zizka about writing her solo projects as well as the more than forty collaborations she's worked on so far in her career. They chat about the challenges inherent in collaborations, how Maria got her start in the food world and the role letter writing played in getting her incredible internship—recipe testing alongside Suzanne Goin. Maria shares how she balances collaborations and solo projects, the lessons, systems and habits she's established because of her range of experiences, and the projects she will and won't take on. She talks about the process of switching agents, why she celebrates even the little milestones and the advice she has for aspiring authors.Hosts: Kate Leahy + Molly Stevens + Kristin Donnelly + Andrea NguyenEditor: Abby Cerquitella MentionsMaria ZizkaWebsiteInstagram University of Gastronomic SciencesEpisode 32: Co-Authoring Cookbooks with JJ Goode Visit the Everything Cookbooks Bookshop to purchase a copy of the books mentioned in the showThe Newlywed Table by Maria ZizkaBoards, Platters, Plates by Maria ZizkaOne-Bowl Meals by Maria ZizkaCook Color by Maria ZizkaThe Hostess Handbook by Maria ZizkaSunday Suppers at Lucques by Suzanne GoinI Love You: Recipes from the Heart by Pamela Anderson
