10 Ways to Help the Book Succeed

Thanks for your interest in the cookbook! People ask me all the time how they can help support the book, so I came up with 10 suggestions. Thanks for asking, and thanks for helping to spread the joy.

  1. Write reviews and post them online at Amazon.com and other websites.
  2. Recommend the book on blogs, listserves, message boards, and chat rooms that you visit regularly.
  3. If you have a blog or podcast, please tell your visitors/readers/fans/listeners about the book. Just send them to www.joyofveganbaking.com.
  4. Let your local vegetarian society know about the book.
  5. Call your local bookstore, library, and health food store and ask them to carry the book.
  6. Give the books to friends and family - vegan and non-vegan. In many ways this is a "vegan cookbook through and through" and in many ways it's a baking cookbook that "happens to be vegan." It appeals to a wide audience. Make the gift even more special by sending along a homemade batch of banana muffins!
  7. If you are interested, please ask me about getting postcards that you can and will distribute in front of cafes, bookstores, health food stores, at vegan events. I don't mean simply stacking these in cafes; I mean if you are interested in actually handing out the cookbook postcard to like-minded audiences, this is the kind of grassroots marketing we need!
  8. While you're ordering the book from your local bookstore, order more than one. The store will put on the shelf whatever you don't buy.
  9. If you’d like to interview Colleen please contact Susan at
  10. If you purchase books to sell to the public in any capacity, please send an email to and someone will get back to you with the wholesale discount and terms of payment.
