Having written the copy about the @brightonchamber breakfast speaker for years, I'm finally giving the talk myself tomorrow. I'll be discussing journalism, copywriting, training, self-publishing and interrailing. Hope to see you there! (Pic is of me on a train in the Netherlands)
If you are 30-ish and suffer with a bad back due to your work posture, I would love to speak to you for a national newspaper article. Looking for people who have #back issues caused by too much sitting at their computer. Sound like you? @JournoRequest @physioupdate UK-based. Ta!

My first book has been published! "Crowded Platforms and Window Seats" is an entertaining account of my 3-week family interrail trip in July. There's also a nostalgic look back at my 1988 trip and tips for anyone inspired to go interrailing themselves. amazon.co.uk/Crowded-Platfo…

The easiest way to improve your writing at a stroke is to write in short sentences. Aim for no more than 25 words in each.
Want to practise your writing? Here's an exercise you can do at home. Find a long sentence (50/60 words) in a magazine or website. What can be said more simply, in fewer words or cut out altogether? Then rewrite it into sentences with no more than 25 words in each.
When writing a headline, avoid cliches. As a Brightonian, I've lost count of the number of times I've seen the headline "Brighton rocks". Be original!
Struggle with apostrophes? You're not alone. One of the most common errors is it's/ its. It's means it is or it has ("it's lovely to see you!") Its means belong to ("the dog wagged its tail"). And you never write its' EVER!
Writing tip: read your email/ blog post etc out loud. It's a great way of picking up long or clunky sentences as well as typos.

The more you read something, the harder it is to pick up on typos. Your brain reads what it THINKS is on the page rather than what's there. One way to get round this is to change the font, colour or size of your copy. Or try reading it backwards!
An easy way to improve your writing is to avoid repeating the same word. Look for synonyms (a thesaurus can be very useful). For instance, depending on context, you can replace "short" with small, brief, little, mini etc. Replace "cat" with pet, animal and so on.
