We’re both working for Nickelodeon.
OK – so he has a major kids show and I will be a food writer for their parenting magazine, but still, I’m pretty excited.
So, for those of you who read this blog, let me tell you, a lot of it is due to you.
I have the world’s best agent, Rachelle Gardner. Every time I talk to her she assures me that I, in fact, am her only client and that she spends all of her waking hours working to make sure that I am completely happy. Well, I have evidence to the contrary.
Seems that she has another client, Erin MacPherson. I will excuse this little indiscretion on Rachelle’s part because Erin is super cool and real and funny. (And since you have amazing taste – I know this because you read this blog – you should absolutely check out her super-fun blog and new book here.)
Anywho.
Erin and I started chatting by e-mail and then she checked out my blog. That’s when she discovered me and my deep abiding love for all things tomato. After doing a little digging in the blog, she saw that roughly a quarter of all my post were food related.
Little did I know that for her day job, Erin is a writer/editor for Nickelodeon Family and Kids digital and edits their weekly food newsletter. Oh, and did I want to be a food writer for them.
Um, yeah.
So thanks to all of you and your love of all things yummy, I get to do a very cool job and work with a really cool woman.
Writing about food.
These are a few of my favorite things…
Oh – and if you want to subscribe to Parent Connect Food Newsletter sign up for it here. (My first issue – coming out next week – is all about how to use fresh tomatoes. Yum…)
That’s awesome, Kathi! But hey wait, I’m one of Rachelle’s clients. 😉
I clicked over from a link on one of your agent’s Tweets. I love serendipitous stories. Thanks for sharing this one!
Yummy serendipity!
How cool is THAT?!?! Boy, did THEY make the right choice!
Great news Kathi! Super happy for you and the little spongeman.
Yay! I can’t WAIT for the tomato newsletter to come out…. your recipes AND food are FABULOUS!! And thank you for the kind words about me! I was shocked to find out that Rachelle had other clients, too! 🙂
That is fantastic! Congratulations!
This is terrific news, Kathi! Best of everything in this new venture!
yipee!! how cool is that! so happy for you, kathi
