Dear Not So Secret Agent Readers,
If you follow me on IG you saw that I worked some sh*t out over the weekend in a Smash Room with my longtime besties. Even though it took us three attempts to get together (mom life, amIright?!), it was everything I hoped it would be.
We also tested our personal parental resolve by braving 90 degree heat with our collective group of 4 kids under the age of 6 at an actual water/amusement park.
***Not So Secret Agent Side Note: I will never understand why they call it an amusement park. Highly questionable community pool water and sticky body harnesses do not amuse me.***
Maybs did go on her first real grown-up roller roaster, and that made it all worth it. Gotta love having a five year old that is well over 48 inches.
Spoiler alert, she loved it!
“Again! Again!”
What a milestone!
This week’s milestone for me is the official launch of my NSSA Skill Building Series. This series was born out of the goal to bring you, my readers, direct access to experts that can help you hone your craft.
If you’re interested in sharpening your recipe writing skills and want to network with the NSSA reader community, I highly encourage you to come to the first session.
When: July 30th from 1-2:30ET
Where: on Zoom (recording provided after)
Deets: The first hour will be an overview and AMA. Then, during the last 30 mins, I will facilitate an OFFER & ASK networking session.
This event is reserved exclusively for paying readers to ensure that those most engaged in professional development are in the same room.
Paid readers should be able to see the Zoom info at the bottom of this email. If you’re a running into a paywall, click HERE to upgrade your subscription. Reply to this email or send me a DM if you encounter any issues!
Lastly, as a thank you to this incredible community, I will be giving away one 30-min consult to a randomly chosen paid reader during the Recipe AMA. All paying subscribers are eligible and you do not have to attend live to win.
Can’t make the Zoom or upgrade? Check out this template you can use to engage recipes testers in your own network.
Are you a recipe tester looking for more opportunities for work? HERE is the Not So Secret Agent Recipe Tester Community List!
Why should you even care about having your recipes tested? Read this and then join us on Wednesday.
Most authors have one chance to send an agent or editor their book proposal. Writing a cookbook is enough of a roller coaster ride already. Believe me, if your recipes don’t work, nobody will be amused!
