Welcome to FoodStak
I love reading and writing about food and do what I can to support food writers. This is why I created FoodStak.
To help readers find amazing food writers, I have created a List of Food Writers, an index of Publications on Substack. If you are a food writer, get yourself listed here.
You will also find
Other People’s Series: A series of Q&A articles with food writers often taking a sneak peek into their kitchens and even inside their fridges to learn more about who they are and what they do.
Who Writes What, my new podcast. Conversations with food writers, restaurant reviewers, and literary agents about their work, their voice, and how they got here.
A List of Cookbooks worth adding to your collection, and if you’ve written one, get yours listed here.
A bit of history
FoodStak began in 2024 under the name FoodStack Library. It took a break and relaunched under its current name, FoodStak, gradually bringing back the original archived articles alongside new ones.
About me
I’m Lynn Hill, the writer, interviewer, and admin behind FoodStak. I’m a cookbook author (The Clandestine Cake Club Cookbook, 2013 and A Year of Cake, 2015), a member of the Guild of Food Writers, and a self-taught home cook based in the UK.
During the Clandestine Cake Club years (2010–2018), I appeared with several members at the time in BBC1’s The One Show, ITV’s Lorraine and The Alan Titchmarsh Show, BBC Radio 4 and Woman’s Hour, and have appeared in the pages of The Times, the Daily Mail, and The Washington Post. I’ve sharpened my own baking skills at Bettys Cookery School and, during lockdown, I did several of Leith’s Cookery School online courses.
If you’re a food writer who’d like to be added to the list, or you just want to say hello, I’d love to hear from you.
