Portfolio

"As a newsroom journalist, I was rigorously trained to write sharp copy, reliably and at speed every day. I wrote on every imaginable topic, from charity events and royal visits, to terrorism, politics and crime, and even UFO sightings. I also had a regular film column dedicated to independent cinema, wrote a series of features on all the faith communities of my patch, and traveled to Kashmir, India, to write a four-part special report."
