March update

A slight breeze in the air, flowers suddenly appear, and the sun anxiously peers out of the clouds - if only for 30 minutes - and rumor has it winter has ended. Is it too early to put away my scarf and hat? Here is what I have published this month

Dogs Monthly – A feature I wrote about my childhood dog, Tammy, who was the love of my life. Tammy sent the first ripples of rebellion through my mind when my school forbid me writing stories about her. The mag has some fun late 1980's pics too.

Bookdealer – This month I look at life in my local small country town library, including the oddballs and characters who pop in and out of the "study room".

Caris - My second feature for this teenage magazine is an interview with a young gypsy girl in Romania, who talks about her daily life and hopes for the future.

As usual I have cd reviews for Clash magazine and rockfeedback, including the latest quasi, swanton bombs, and Kirsty McGee.

Remember to check out my blog for the very latest.

Flowers always work...Don't they?

Romania

Special Request -

Following a research trip to Romania last November, my wife and I are looking for ways to help out in whatever way we can. We are asking for
support for our Romania playground project. We are aiming to raise £2500 for the charity to build a playground for these orphans and neglected kids, who have suffered a great deal. Please take a moment to read the appeal, thank you!
I graduated from Brighton City College in 2009 in NCTJ with an A in Magazine Journalism, and currently work full time as a freelance journalist. I also write a monthly column for Bookdealer magazine.
Examples of published material can be viewed on my online portfolio, which also includes exclusive access to my bookdealer columns and links to magazines and websites that have featured my work.
