About me
I am a freelance copywriter and writer. I have extensive experience in web copywriting and copyediting, blog writing, e-newsletters and press releases. I have been self-employed since 2016. I have been writing (previews/reviews) about art, culture, fashion, travel and theatre on my blog The Avant Garde since 2010. I wrote for Narc Magazine, a culture magazine in Newcastle from 2013 to 2016 and did a wide variety of pieces, including live music reviews, culture features and interviews with high profile stars such as Ruby Wax and Mark Gatiss.
