What's my background?

Twenty-five years in a newsroom means you learn a thing or two about story-telling

Working for a daily newspaper teaches you just about

everything you need to know when it comes writing stories and meeting deadlines. 

Whether they're a few succinct sentences or a well-researched weekend feature, tailoring a story to suit the scenario and timeframe, and hold a reader's interest, was your daily bread.

In the digital age, the appeal of story-telling has grown extensively and is one of the best ways to stay connected with your customers or clients. But you're not a journalist or a writer, nor do you have time to be one when you're busy with your day job. 

So who ya gonna call? A prose-busting content writer sounds like a good start. Since you're on this page why not get in touch and see what we can come up with together. 

The work already notched up in this well-worn belt includes all kinds of story-telling, from grass roots community, to commercial and corporate, tragic to celebrity, it's all been across the keyboard at some stage.

If you like what you see, or more importantly, are reading, happy to tap away on your behalf too.  

Insightful and authentic, reliable and trustworthy...

“Lesley cares about what she writes about. She takes the responsibilities of journalism seriously and can still find humour and light to celebrate and enjoy. A person of values and principles she brings an open mind and heart, without bias and preference, to the stories she researches and reports on.”
