News flash: Jared Goodman, the writer behind the ever-popular Good Man Eats food blog, is to become the ‘food publisher’ for Green Posting – an online resource for sustainable (green) businesses across Portland, OR.

Here’s the plan:

As ‘food publisher,’ I will write a monthly column for GreenPosting.org. The topics will range from 100-mile food choices to interviews with local “green” businesses, from reports on food events in Portland to extended articles on my meal planning and shopping experiences. I will have complete content control over my articles, which is rather awesome I think. The postings will be a bit shorter than some of the epic posts on this site, in this case length will go between 350-700 words. Overall, I believe this is an excellent opportunity to develop my writing skills, explore and engage the food scene in Portland, network and gain readership (for my blog), and begin this unexpected “career” in food.

I never, ever thought my life would take this direction.

But damn, does it feel good.

(Keep posted for a link to my first article later this month.)
