SALT LAKE CITY— During basketball season, Deseret News sports writer Eric Woodyard is constantly on the road for his job covering the Utah Jazz. One night he'll be in New York; the next, Atlanta. And when he's not traveling, he's working in the Deseret News offices in Salt Lake — all of which keeps him busy, and largely away from his Flint, Michigan, hometown. But he still manages to make time — and this month, a book — for his son.
“I'm a father. My son Ethan Woodyard is about to turn 5 on March 25, and me and his mom (Sharonda Jones, who is also from Flint) were thinking of something special to do for him,” Woodyard said in a recent interview.
