About Elissa Altman
IN 2008, I LAUNCHED AN EXPERIMENT.
Over Christmas break, using a free platform and a banner image designed by my wife, book designer Susan Turner, I decided to see whether or not blog readers would be drawn to long form narrative about the intersection of sustenance —in whatever form it comes: at the table and far beyond —- and spirit.
I was assured they wouldn’t. I was told that people really only ever want practical food writing. Quick recipes. In-and-out.
