I'm leaving my position as the food writer at the Chattanooga Time Free Press to be closer to my daughter, who currently lives five hours away (maybe longer depending on the traffic in Atlanta). Under any other circumstance, I would stay. However, besides me trying to be a better Christian, being a great father is the No. 1 priority in my life. Thank you to all the readers who embraced my style and made it clear, week after week after week, how much they loved and appreciated my work. Their positive words reinforced my belief that writing about food is what the good Lord gifted me to do. Read my full farewell column at the link in our bio.
