About Bob Morris

Welcome, hungry people

Hey, I’m Bob Morris and I run this joint. Glad you’re here.

You might know me from my years as a newspaper columnist (Fort Myers News-Press, USA Today, Orlando Sentinel, New York Times Regional Newspaper Group), but you’d really be dating yourself because I jumped that ship a long time ago.

Since then I’ve written for magazines (Islands, National Geographic Traveler, Bon Appetit and, curiously, Men's Fitness), been a magazine editor (Aqua, Caribbean Travel & Life, Gulfshore Life), taught writing at Rollins College and published a bunch of novels set in Florida and the Caribbean (Bahamarama, Jamaica Me Dead, Bermuda Schwartz, A Deadly Silver Sea, Baja Florida. )

Nowadays, I’m the head guy at Story Farm, a custom publishing company where I work with my older son, Bo, who is much smarter than me, along with designers, writers and editors scattered all over the country. We create coffee-table style books for chefs/restaurants, hotels/resorts, artists/museums and anyone who has an interesting story to tell.
