About Mastermind For Food Writers
And how to get involved
Education, Connection, and Resources for Food Writers by Food Writers
Welcome! If you’re a food writer who wants to build a sustainable business, grow your audience, and connect with other, like-minded food writers, you’re in the right place.
Hello. I’m Rebecca Blackwell a food writer with two recipe websites and a Substack newsletter. I started this group in January of 2025, and The Food Writers Business Lab in May of 2026 as a way to link arms with fellow food writers and deepen the community of support.
Information is everywhere. Collaboration is rare.
There is no shortage of information about food writing and growing a business. What is much harder to find is a group of experienced people who are willing to share what they’ve learned, offer thoughtful feedback, celebrate your wins, and help you solve the problems that are baked into building a creative business.
That’s what this group is about.
Here’s how to get involved:
Monthly Mastermind Meetings: Join fellow food writers every month for a free 90-minute mastermind meeting held over zoom. Meetings are free to attend, but registration is required. Here’s where you’ll find information about this month’s meeting.
Recordings from previous meetings. All of the free mastermind meetings are recorded so if you can’t join us live, you can watch the replay later. Here’s where you’ll find all the meeting recordings.
The Food Writers Business Lab (Paid Members). Hands-on workshops taught by experienced food writers covering food photography, cookbook proposals, organizational strategies, platform building, SEO, products, cooking classes, and more.
Business Strategy Meetings (Paid Members). A once a month mastermind meeting for paid members who are focused on building a sustainable business as a food writer
The Food Readers Book Club! A fun opportunity to connect with other food writers over books!
The goal of Mastermind for Food Writers and The Food Writers Business Lab isn’t simply to learn more. It’s to build a better business alongside people who genuinely want to see each other succeed.
