About me
I am a freelance journalist with 10 years experience gained through working in newspapers, radio and PR.
I am available for all kinds of writing jobs, big or small. I write for national newspapers such as The Guardian; magazines including Writers' News and regional glossies like Cornwall Today but I'm also happy to produce copy for things like press releases, leaflets and newsletters.
As well as writing jobs I also offer PR consultancy, which encompasses professional advice and press office services. My experience in this field comes from the five years I spent managing a regional press office for the RSPB. You can read more about my PR work by visiting that section of the site, which also includes examples of my work in this field.
Examples of my other work can be found in the Cuttings section and in the Journalism section you can find out where I did my training and a little about my reporting career.
I can also provide a variety of media training services. You can find out more about this in the Everything Else section, where there is also a bit more about me and some of my photos.
As well as the above I try to find time to keep up my blog, which is another place you can see examples of my writing. I also write a beer blog inspired by my passion for real ale
Please contact me to discuss commissions, fees and availability.
