Print work...
My first full time job in media was as Features Editor for Beauty & Health Publishing. I
loved the work, which sent me from one end of the country to another and involved me in all sorts of escapades. I went from one extreme to another - one week I could be having a pampering facial and a half day in the Sanctuary Covent Garden, and the next I would be staying for three nights in Shrubland Hall, on their 'light menu' of lettuce, carrot and lemon juice...and no coffee.
As Shrubland Hall no longer operates as a Health Spa, I can admit...I sneaked food in with me after being tipped off about the regime, and still lost six pounds. And almost fainted.
Since leaving BHP, I have written mostly freelance features for health & beauty titles, and been dispatched to places as diverse as Malta and Hungary to write about
spa resorts. I've covered fitness trends, nutrition and health...diet and holistic therapy.
Here's a selection of my favourites.
