I\'mmore...Hallo there
I\'m activating my profile on PPH in July 2010, which is why I have no track record with the site. But I can supply excellent references for my work.
I\'m a journalist with 20+ years\' experience in national consumer magazines, website development and editing, and book publishing. I am a creative and original writer, and a stickler for accuracy. I will produce fresh, arresting copy that goes beyond predictable clichÃ’©s, grabs the attention and conveys the message.
I am skilled at conceiving publishing projects, helping to define a target audience and develop the content profile which will reach them.
I have written / edited extensively on health, family lifestyle, teen sexuality, work and small businesses, travel, fashion and classical music. (Did I mention adaptability in my skill set?)
I have extensive experience in commissioning, which means that I know what to ask to clarify a brief and produce a realistic job quote. I�ve never missed a deadline in my life.
