March Third Thursday: "Eating Your Words: The Art of Food Writing"

Presented by Writers' League of Texas at BookPeople

In the age of Instagram, it can seem as if almost everyone you know is photographing & writing about food. But what does it take to convey the wonders of a delicious meal in full sensory detail, and how does that differ from writing (and testing) a recipe that others can replicate accurately? How do cultural issues impact the way we think — and write — about what we eat? Beyond food journalism and recipe writing, how can fiction writers use descriptions of preparing or eating a meal as a way to understand characters or move a narrative forward? We’ll talk with four experts on writing about food.
