Martha Stewart's 100th Book: A New Chapter In Her Iconic Career

Hey there, let’s talk about Martha Stewart, the queen of all things homey and elegant. If you thought she’d ever slow down and retire, think again! At the 2019 Fashion Scholarship Fund Gala in NYC on January 10, the 77-year-old dynamo revealed her New Year’s goal in an exclusive chat with Closer Weekly: writing her 100th book. And yes, that’s right—her 100th book. Now that’s what I call dedication!

Martha’s Book-Writing Ambition

Martha didn’t hold back when she shared her excitement about this milestone project. “My most important [thing to accomplish this year is], well, actually to start writing my hundredth book!” she gushed to Closer at the gala, where she was honored with the YMA’s Lifetime Achievement Award. This isn’t just any ordinary book—it’s a testament to her lifelong passion for creating, sharing, and inspiring others. For Martha, writing isn’t just a hobby; it’s a way of life.

Branching Out: Martha’s New Shoe Line

Martha’s not just sticking to books, though. In addition to her countless cookbooks and other ventures, she recently launched her first shoe line, Martha Everyday with Payless ShoeSource. When asked about this new chapter, Martha couldn’t contain her enthusiasm. “I’m in fashion now, that’s why I’m getting honored by this group tonight,” she said with a smile. “I had a very successful year on QVC with my fashion line, but [my shoe line is] really nice and practical. I call it every day elegant. It’s working really well, people love it.”

Staying True to Her Roots

But don’t worry, Martha assured her fans that she’d never abandon her original passions. “Oh no, no never! I will always love cooking, I will always love gardening, I will love everything about the home, and fashion is part of home,” she shared. For Martha, fashion isn’t just about clothes—it’s about enhancing the way we live, create, and express ourselves. It’s all interconnected, and that’s what makes her work so timeless.

With decades of success under her belt, Martha has become a powerhouse in both business and showbiz. In a recent podcast interview, she revealed the secret to her success: fearlessness. “I’m not afraid of anything,” she said. “Fearlessness really, really helps.” And when it comes to her legacy, Martha hopes her books will stand the test of time. “I thought if I don’t write a book, my grandchildren, if I ever have any, will never know what Grandma did in her life because catering is so ephemeral,” she explained. “You do it… and the minute they eat the dinner, it’s gone. I wanted to make sure that I recorded my ideas, the beautiful recipes.”

We couldn’t agree more, Martha. Your books are more than just pages; they’re a reflection of your incredible journey and the passion that drives you. We can’t wait to see what your 100th book brings to the table!
