Writing

Over the years, I’ve worked for a number of publications — including CANOE Travel, Canadian Musician, Professional Sound, Professional Lighting & Production, Canadian Music Trade and Pulse Niagara — in various writing and editing roles.

Much of that writing portfolio is in print form (gasp!) and is stored, literally, on the other-side of the planet. Once I track down or cobble together digital copies, they will be displayed here.

If you are looking for a writer/editor for your project or publication, I occasionally do freelance work and would be happy to provide additional writing samples as required. Please simply contact me with some details and I’ll get back to you promptly.
