After completing my journalism training at Harlow College, Essex, I started as a Junior Reporter at the Hackney Gazette in east London. From there, I went to work at a press agency where I focussed on feature writing. I worked at that's life! and Chat before setting up as a freelance in April 2006. Since then my work has appeared in a variety of publications including The Guardian, the Daily Mirror and Woman magazine. I am currently the Joint Features Editor of Chat it's fate.
Specialist areas
I specialise in human interest, health and travel articles for national magazines and newspapers. I also run Wrate's Editing Services, which carries out proofreading, copy editing, structural editing and ghostwriting for self-publishers of novels and non-fiction. I write The WES Blog, which concentrates on the self-publishing industry.
