Andrea Chesman, Writer, Teacher, Editor

Hello. Deep in the pandemic, I’m focusing on just living. There are no in-person classes and I am not a fan of creating video content. So mostly what I am doing is making meals that satisfy, using the last of the garden produce. There was a drought this past summer, so yields were not great. Mostly, I have applesauce, pickles, and canned tomatoes. So it goes.

I’ve added a new page with links to fiction that has been posted on line. I am finding my greatest joy in writing fiction these days, and that’s where my energy is going. I hope you get a chance to read some stories and let me know what you think. The stories tend to be available to be read online for a year. Meanwhile, you can still buy my cookbooks.

Here are links to some places where you can buy my cookbooks on line:
