8 Easy Ways to Support Your Favorite Author

8 Easy Ways to Support Your Favorite Author

Perhaps the sweetest moment of an author's life (aside from the second we hit "send" upon completion of our manuscript) is the day the very first copy of our book arrives. And that day, my friends, has come.

Though The Backyard Fire Cookbook officially releases on May 14, 2019, we (the publisher and I) have received our initial copies to read through, hold tight, and squeal over. (The latter being mostly me, that is.)

It's surreal to see a project of this magnitude come to life in the form of a neatly bound hardcover, and while I had visions of how the book might turn out, I'm blown away by how utterly good it is now that I have it in my hands!

The printer, editors, and design team did a killer job, and the images that Will captured in our backyard and kitchen last summer are incredible. The bold cover, square shape, and smooth, matte pages give the book a modern, artistic feel that I'm really loving.

I am so excited for you to see it, and I hope you'll preorder a copy (via Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Book Depository, Books A Million, Indigo, or your favorite independent bookseller) so you'll have it in time for your summer barbecues!

I'm often asked by my readers, "Are preorders really that important?" or "Doesn't your publisher do all the work of promoting the book?" And my responses to those questions are, "Yes! Yes!" and "To a certain extent."

You see, publishers use preorders to measure how much buzz a new title is getting and...

COMING MAY 14! NOW AVAILABLE FOR PREORDER! The Backyard Fire Cookbook will help you get outside and master live-fire cooking with over 70 modern and approachable recipes for ember roasting, charcoal grilling, plank grilling, and cast-iron cooking.

Advice for New Gardeners: The Best Seeds to Plant in Spring

Advice for New Gardeners: The Best Seeds to Plant in Spring

In my very first year of gardening, I did what any ambitious beginner would do in a brand-new garden: I bought a bunch of seeds that looked good, threw them in the ground, and hoped at least a few of them would come up.

Some seeds did come up, but many others either took their sweet time germinating (laying dormant for weeks until I'd forgotten about them) or never sprouted at all, becoming a free buffet for a passing bird or slug.

It took several seasons of trial and error before I mastered the tricks of seed starting, learned which varieties grew best in my climate, and figured out when to plant them for a productive harvest.

Ironically, it took much less time than that to realize that patience — a somewhat necessary trait for a gardener — was not one of my strong suits, and after a winter of minimal sun and slow-growing crops, I wanted near-instant gratification in the garden come spring. I didn't want to wait alllll season long for my first harvest, I didn't want to coddle seedlings or worry whether I was doing it "right." Yet, I really loved growing my own food from seed.

In short, I just wanted it to be easy. Fun, fast, and easy.

Seeds for spring planting

What I've discovered is that many of my favorite food plants in the garden are those that come up quickly and can be harvested at any stage. It's encouraging to see your seeds sprout in just a few short days, and oh-so-satisfying to pick your first crop in a matter of weeks.

The prime time to start your seeds in the garden...

A Sneak Peek of The Backyard Fire Cookbook

A Sneak Peek of The Backyard Fire Cookbook

It didn’t seem so long ago that I shared the making of the cover for my third book, The Backyard Fire Cookbook: Get Outside and Master Ember Roasting, Charcoal Grilling, Cast-Iron Cooking, and Live-Fire Feasting (which we shot last summer), but here we are, just a month away from release!

May 14, 2019, is the official release date for the book, but initial copies have already been delivered to the publisher and my own FIRST COPY arrived this week!

Will (my photographer and in-house taste tester) and I have been gleefully poring over its pages the last couple days, and I can’t wait to share a video preview with you soon.

Preorders are available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Book Depository (for non-USA readers — they offer free international shipping!), Books A Million, Indigo (for Canadian readers), or your local independent bookshop.

It would be so, so awesome if you’re able to preorder your copy before the book’s release, as it helps our retailers decide how many books to stock and signals to the publisher if another printing is needed (before our inventory sells out).

Preorders are important for every author of a new book, and I greatly appreciate you spreading the word these next few weeks as we await the official release! (Here are a few easy ways to support your favorite author, most of which do not involve buying books at all.)

If you’re a writer or media outlet in need of press copies, or you’re a retailer interested in carrying The Backyard Fire...

CHECK OUT MY BOOKS

COMING MAY 14! NOW AVAILABLE FOR PREORDER! The Backyard Fire Cookbook will help you get outside and master live-fire cooking with over 70 modern and approachable recipes for ember roasting, charcoal grilling, plank grilling, and cast-iron cooking.

The New Camp Cookbook offers over 100 modern recipes for campers, road trippers, and adventurers, plus practical tips for building a cooking fire, setting up a camp kitchen, and stocking an outdoor pantry. As seen in Time, Outside, and Food & Wine!
