Leaving My Dream Job

I started working at VegNews magazine in 2011 as an associate editor. It was my dream job. I got the job offer just before the holidays and it was a true gift. In 2015, I became the magazine’s food editor and got to work with an amazing team of chefs, food writers, and food photographers. We created some of my favorite recipes of all time. While I’ve had the best time collaborating with VegNews’ creative director Sutton Long and the fab team (shout out to all my writers & photographers who are super talented), I decided it was time to leave my dream job and pursue new opportunities. Below is our November + December 2018 issue, complete with the holiday cookbook, which is my last issue working with VegNews. On to new adventures!

My Life in Pictures
The stack on the left is my last draft. The stack of sheets on the right are the only sections I’m keeping. I’ve been working on this book since before my girls were born. People often tell me that they couldn’t write when the kids were little. I was so scared I’d stop writing after my kids were born, but I persisted. I wrote when I pumped breastmilk at 4 AM. I wrote for 15 minutes a day in the beginning. My friend Yin @88cupsoftea has a great writers podcast and her guest suggested an amazing revision class called how to revise her novel, which I love. It’s been a slow process, but I’m getting there. Moms who write have inspired me to keep going even when it’s tough. My friends and accountability team have kept me going through the long-haul. Writing is often solitary. People often only see your success. But I’m here to show that it takes time and effort and a lot of persistence. I hope this inspires more women to write no matter what. #amwriting #ya #momswhowrite
Couples who vote together stay politically active. Talked to our daughters about voting and why it’s important. #govote🇺🇸
Happy Halloween 🎃 from Chloe the 🐒 and Claire the 🦄! 😍😍😍
It’s my last issue working as the food editor for @vegnews. I’m so proud to go out on a high note. The Nov + Dec 2018 issue has the prettiest cover and an AH-MAZING holiday cookbook. Love how it turned out! While I’m going to miss my brilliant team of writers & photographers, I’m on to new adventures.
I wrote a fun piece for the November 2018 issue of @goodhousekeeping about the importance of adult play time, including @digthisvegas, a construction equipment playground!
