Eat. Blog. Publish: Internet to Paper Hit
Description
eatPGH is a blog about Pittsburgh food started by four ladies in 2009. Delicious food and fresh, fun perspective was the name of the game for three years. The gals blogged with the burgeoning Pittsburgh food community and food eaters in mind. And then, BOOM. A book deal. The first book dedicated to 'Burgh food (in the history of... well... ever.) It's the delicious dream to reality of blog turned book.

And, while harnessing the power of the internet is key, the most important part of the process is engaging in the good old fashioned way of talking to people and networking the crap out of your town/city/hamlet.
