This year I have self published an Ebook: 'Champagne & Oysters: Loved-up food stories'. It is a ten short story anthology of up-market love stories with food connotations. Each story has a different food commodity cleverly threaded through the love story where I either give the reader information regarding the lobster, bread, cheese, meat, etc. or weave the recipe / preperation into the plot. Each story has a different eating venue, i.e. restaurant, home, cruise liner, picnic etc. and seven out of ten have happy endings.
The pitch reads:
WARNING: DO NOT READ THESE STORIES IF YOU ARE HUNGRY! From the sensual kneading of bread to the erotic swallowing of oysters, these stories will titivate your taste buds and stimulate your appetite. Mixing love and sex with food and cooking is always a recipe for success.
I'm now trying (not very sucessfully) to market it.
