BUT, we couldn&#8217;t have an interview series here at Mediavine without having a chat with Chef D.\n\nChef Dennis Littley is not only a respected and well known publisher in the food blogging world, he also has a place in the hearts of all the Mediavine team as one of our most vocal supporters.\n\nIf you&#8217;re on the hunt for restaurant quality recipes made accessible for every home cook and tips and tricks from a culinary professional, look no further than<a href=\"https:\/\/www.askchefdennis.com\/\"> Ask Chef Dennis.<\/a>\n\nWe&#8217;re so glad you made some time for us, Chef D!

That was the bad news and the good news.\n\nBecause of that and my wife&#8217;s retirement from teaching we moved to Florida a little over 4 years ago and I began taking blogging a little more seriously.\n\nAfter suffering a bout of depression I poured myself back into my work, spending 10-12 hours a day blogging and doing social media. That is, as long as it wasn&#8217;t a beach day!\n\nFlorida has transformed me completely. I&#8217;ve become more happy, more confident and really begun to enjoy the life I&#8217;ve created in retirement. Joining Mediavine was the game changer. The earnings I&#8217;ve been enjoying because of Mediavine have allowed me to do what I want to do, when I want to do it. I&#8217;ve embraced travel blogging and although it has not become a viable source of income, free travel is always a good thing!\n\nLife is good when you love what you do. It never feels like work.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4478 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chef-Dennis-3-736x460.jpg\" alt=\"Chef Dennis along with his camera setup while shooting a new recipe.\" width=\"736\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chef-Dennis-3-736x460.jpg 736w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chef-Dennis-3-441x276.jpg 441w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chef-Dennis-3-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Chef-Dennis-3.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/>\n<h2>How did you get started blogging?<\/h2>\nI got started in blogging so my culinary students would have someplace to find the recipes we were making.\n<h2>How long have you been a Mediavine publisher?<\/h2>\nI\u2019ve been a Mediavine publisher since March 7, 2016.\n<h2>What was it that drew you to us as a partner for your display advertising?<\/h2>\nMy BFF Toni Dash (of <a href=\"https:\/\/boulderlocavore.com\/\">Boulder Locavore<\/a>) kept raving about Mediavine and urged me to leave my ad partner to join. It&#8217;s the best decision I ever made.\n<h2>How has that evolved over time?<\/h2>\nSince I started with Mediavine the one thing I can definitely say about them is that they are driven.

We have all become magazine publishers, marketing agencies and in some cases, TV stations. There is so much more involved in the process of blogging than there was when I began in 2009 and its going to continue to change and evolve as technology advances.\n<h2>What&#8217;s the best part of the blog world for you?<\/h2>\nAll the amazing friends I&#8217;ve made over the years of blogging.\n<h2>What&#8217;s the worst part of blogging for you?<\/h2>\nHaving to ask for money.

The sad fact is we&#8217;ve never met IRL, although we speak on the phone all the time. Toni is an amazing photographer, food stylist and writer. She has been my mentor, manager and sounding board for the crazy ideas I get. Everyone needs a blogging friend like Toni, it makes blogging and life decisions a lot easier.\n\nJenni Fields (<a href=\"https:\/\/pastrychefonline.com\/\">Pastry Chef Online<\/a>) because she makes me drool all over my keyboard looking at the deliciousness she creates.
