I'd also like to submit some of these recipes for inclusion in the 2023 edition of the Good Sam Guide.
Will we receive compensation for our recipes? I think it's only right that if someone makes money off of something I authored, that I receive compensation.
While I agree artists and engineers should be compensated for their work I wonder who can point to what recipe and say "that is all mine"
I bet that most societies have tradition of sharing food, and ways to prepare it from the time we climbed down the trees.
People get paid for recipes all the time. That's why people write and sell cookbooks.
In this case, the OP is asking for actual detailed recipes specifically to include in a to be published cookbook not just "cooking ideas".
On a travel forum, the forum owners (who publish travel books) will at times use quotes from the forum in their books. When they do, they give credit for the quote to the author AND they offer the author one of their travel books (the author can choose which book) in compensation.
Seems fair to me for Good Sam to offer some sort of compensation when they are asking forum members to provide the actual content of their cookbook (rather than just a one or two line quote like the travel book company).
