Features WriterHotSpot Media Ltd
- Birmingham, United KingdomFull Time
Each day I would research, pitch and write original real life features for international publications. I wrote about multiple genres including sensitive subjects such as domestic violence, and light hearted pieces surrounding weight loss and body confidence for both print and online. I always ensured that the interviewees trusted me completely and I was able to have an excellent rapport with anyone who shared their story with me, both over the phone and in person. I have been featured in multiple publications including, but not limited to: Bella, Best, Take a Break, Chat and the Sun. I am easily able to adapt my writing to suit different house styles. I am now keen to further my career and explore other avenues within the media industry to further extend my skills. Some examples of my work during this time can be seen here. My full portfolio of work from this role can be accessed via the pinned tweet on my Twitter profile: @izzy_bates (Trigger warning: some of these contain themes of sexual and domestic violence).
