About/contact

I have written extensively for UK publications, including most national newspapers and many magazines, and some international ones, and corporate clients. I have written on travel, health, the arts, careers, education, money, tech, property and other subjects.

I have also edited publications, researched television shows and written a number of books.

I also wrote and produced a theatre show, ‘Gertrude’s Secret’, which toured UK theatres for more than three years with actors including Prunella Scales, Angela Griffin and Natalie Cassidy, and a variety show, ‘The House of Fun’, featuring renowned comedian Arthur Smith and numerous other comedians, musicians and other performers including Jenny Eclair, Hal Cruttenden and Nine Below Zero.

I have also organised a number of other comedy, music and spoken word events featuring performers, musicians and speakers as diverse as Richard Herring, Will Self and the band The Christians.

My photography has appeared in a number of publications, and films broadcast also, and I have appeared on a number of radio and television programmes.

I am happy to discuss writing, editing, consultancy, film, theatre, photographic and other projects relating to the above activities.
