    In addition to writing for the media, I assist businesses to create consumer-led promotional literature, including the re-writing of website material, and the writing and issuing of press releases.

    PR and Communications
    I provide a host of PR and communication services: press release writing, identifying feature articles and assisting in Communication and PR campaigns.

    I have worked within both local and national media and, in turn, am able to identify good news stories and turn these into creative, informative press releases suitable for national, local and trade press.

    Copy writing
    I offer a range of copy writing services: paper marketing (including writing/editing/proofreading annual reports, leaflets, sales letters and brochures), website content and product descriptions.

    Work Experience
    -----------------

    Summary: I was Senior Features Writer with Scottish Field magazine (Edinburgh) for five-and-a-half years prior to going freelance 11 years ago. My remit with Scottish Field included writing deadline driven editorial features, commissioning work from other freelancers, proof reading and editing. I also wrote advertising feature copy and commissioned work from freelance writers and photographers.

    Prior to working with Scottish Field I was a news reporter with the Press & Journal daily newspaper (Inverness office) and The Oban Times weekly newspaper. Throughout my career, additional responsibilities have included writing entire newspaper supplements on diverse subjects ranging from motoring and travel to well-being, property and interiors.

    Other work has involved writing copy for business press releases, promotional material, copy for websites and writing and editing annual reports.

    Since going freelance I have contributed to newspapers such as Scotland On Sunday, The Scotsman, The Herald, Sunday Times, Scottish Daily Mail, Edinburgh Evening News, as well as magazines such as Scottish Field, Homes & Interiors Scotland, House Beautiful and 25 Beautiful Homes.

    In recent times I have also edited and proofread the biography of a British-based renowned Bangladeshi businessman - the copy had been translated, so needed a thorough re-draft to ensure it was English perfect, ready for printing. The work included sourcing and editing many tributes to the businessman from several British MPs and celebrities.
