I love words. I like grammar a lot too. More importantly, I love what they have the power to do. My career began in PR; a great grounding for learning to communicate clearly, quickly and persuasively. Few people’s attention is more difficult to attract than an editor receiving 1,000 press releases a week, or even a day. | Despite having much fun on celebrity photo calls, foreign events and product launches, it was the writing side of the job that I really, really enjoyed. Fortunately, there was lots of it: lengthy technical articles, annual reports, fliers, newsletters and brochures. Not to mention hundreds of press releases. Eventually, the writing won and that’s what I do now. Every day. I love it! |
