You might have noticed that the Cooking In Heels project is more than 100% funded on Kickstarter. That’s amazing, and it happened faster than we could have dared to imagine!

So why should you, not-yet-backer, pledge to a project that is already, definitely happening?

Pledging the $30 level means that you are pre-ordering the book and helping us figure out how big our print run should be. The best -and right now the ONLY- way for you and all the people you know to get a copy of Cooking in Heels is by pledging to our Kickstarter campaign. We would love to pre-sell at least 250 hard copy books, which means we need about 175 more pledges at the $30 level to make that happen.


More pledges will make for a better and more beautiful book, with full color pictures of food shot by a professional photographer. In our initial planning for the book, we were afraid to dream up a budget bigger than we could raise funds for, so our original $6000 doesn’t cover photography beyond the cover. If we raise more money (aka, sell more books plus some bigger pledges), we can afford to produce a photo shoot and get the book printed in full color.

If our fundraising continues to blossom, we can produce a series of video webisodes, which will be free to watch and feature Ceyenne cooking dishes from the book and telling stories. Our first obligation, of course, is to making the book awesome. However, we’ve been getting A LOT of requests to produce a cooking show featuring Ceyenne. We would love love love to make this happen, and have the crew to do it: the video crew that produced Ceyenne’s Kickstarter video is Emmy Award-winning, and the director has directed episodes of food shows like Chopped and Man Vs. Food Nation. Creating a high quality and very entertaining web series is well within our abilities, we just need some more funds to make it a reality.

So for those reasons, and because Ceyenne is amazing, please do pledge what you’re able to, and encourage your friends and colleagues to do the same.
