Óscar Estrada

Writer focused on food writing, Springfield

  • 🇺🇸 Springfield, Missouri, United States
  • Springfield Times
  • 1978 to 2014
  • English, Spanish
I'm a writer in Springfield. Food writing is my first love and travel is my second. I write best early in the morning with a pot of tea. I'm always reading two books at once.

More about Óscar

Some of my pieces still make me wince. Some, I'm proud of.
What gifts mean to Óscar: A gift would give me a bit more time to write instead of taking on extra work.
