Current work

IN the summer of 2009, I am working on the following:

Features about diabetes, especially in children. If you have any pointers connected with related developments, then I would love to hear from you.

Mental health. I've been appointed as a regional advisor to Open Up, part of Mental Health Media, If you are a PR person with news of related initiatives or developments, then please add me to your mailing list.

Training The first JournoBiz Make Money from Commercial Writing workshop sold out quickly. I am planning future events too so please get in touch if you want more info.

Real life and health features for newspapers and women's weekly magazines. I'm particularly interested in pitching hard-hitting features connected with the every day lives of UK women. I've recently written about binge eating for a national newspaper and would love to hear from anyone with a similarly compelling story that readers of mainstream national publications could identify with.

Blogging about family holidays at Have a Lovely Time.

As part of my work at the agency where I am a co-director, I am also working with various "commercial writing" clients. See what we are up to on the company blog.
