My lucky break

People often ask me how I got the awesome gig as author of The Whole Food Almanac. Well, when I was getting into freelancing I wanted to get my name out there again with some fresh portfolio work, so I wrote this article on the Neighbourgoods Market for The Argus for free. Jeremy Borraine from Jonathan Ball, who was looking for someone to write a good food guide, saw it and gave me a call. So the free article paid off!
