I'm a former modern dancer who just published a book, The Crack between the Worlds: a dancer's memoir of loss, faith and family. But I've always been an amateur cook, in love with cookbooks and deeply lamenting the loss of Gourmet Magazine, and now I've launched a blog, ritualandrhubarbpie.blogspot.com, where I'll be able to write about food as well as celebration, books, and the trials of publication. I look forward to spending more time on food52.
