I've got a way with words. In fact I've been getting away with them for more than 25 years now, mostly as a freelance copywriter for a wildly (maybe weirdly) diverse range of clients. I'm also an author and editor – so I'm as good on weighty, wordy projects as as I am on concepts, headlines and pithy, punchy stuff.

As you'll see from the examples here, my work ranges from waxing lyrical about art, music and fashion to making complex scientific and medical research issues accessible; from enthusing about tyres to talking tech; from snappy catalogue product captions to long-term editing and 'style curating' projects...

You could say I'm a hack of all trades – but I like to think I've mastered most of them (except web design - as you can see I'm still working on that).
