Food Fanatic. A brief history

So, food fanatic, that's me. everything I do is squarely based around food. I'm a chef of twenty years & love what I do. I currently teach the next generation of chefs, which is a very interesting & engaging vocation. Recently I 've developed a more litterary creative streak, so I've put pen to paper (metaphoricaly) & started writing about food. Food writing seems a real nut to crack, almost a closed door unless you happen to be a TV dwelling 'celebrity' chef; but for me personally if I'm going to write about food, i'll only be happy if I can get it published. So I've spent a while emailing & contacting various food publications about some freelance work. Some have borne results & some haven't (yet!). I had a little appearance on the local BBC radio station last week, which was great fun & I write a column for a community magazine http://roundaboutmagazines.net/roundabout_warwick/index.php As an offshoot to that I began thinking about publishing things myself, so here we are, the begining of my blog. Exciting times.
