Bitten by the Travel Writing Bug
I recently completed two articles for the launch issue of The Caribbean Property Investor Magazine. As someone who loves the Caribbean and has visited Tobago twice and Barbados fleetingly, this publication was a real treat to work on. The images on the right click through to an online version of the magazine.

Take a Look at My Work
The magazine covers on the right each link through to an online version of that issue. As editor of TARGETjobs magazine my role was to manage the editorial process from conception of the content for each issue, right through to signing off the pages for print.
Liaising with colleagues in sales and design, as well as the publisher, the magazine was very much a group effort. I was responsible for assigning members of the editorial team to write pieces of the magazine, as well as writing articles myself. I would also work with the designer to come up with cover ideas, which would in turn lend themselves to effective headlines and cover stories.
I would flatplan all of the editorial and ad pages, and keep in regular contact with sales regarding what space was still left to sell. After I sub-edited all of the pages, I would arrange for the whole publication to be proofread and go through any amends with the designer. Finally I would check PDFs after they were uploaded ready for the printer and sign off the completed magazine.

For Work and Play
This site is intended to provide some examples of my work and act as a landing page for any publishing and journalism enquiries or contacts.
A bit about me: I left university in 2004 with an English Literature degree. I then got a job at a careers publisher and worked my way up from editorial assistant to editor.
I loved writing and editing TARGETjobs magazine, as well as various annual titles and a couple of websites, but after nearly four years I felt I'd got everything out of the job that I could and decided to freelance while I made inroads into women's journalism.
Not the greatest timing on my part, recession and all, but I'm determined to succeed. Let's see what happens next...
I also have a fashion and beauty blog, So Far So Chic, which I update regularly.
