Travel writing
Since 2011, I have been a freelance contributor to Travel Trade Gazette print and online publications.

Over the years, I have written on sport, art, entertainment, lifestyle, travel and business for publications such as The Observer, Sky Magazine, FourFourTwo, Spin, JACK, Sabotage Times, Sportcal and Snooker Scene. I also provide editorial services for content marketing agency Progressive Content, usually focused on their faculty publications for the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW) and the Royal Bank of Scotland’s Content Live website.
