I am a British journalist running my editorial solutions company Piece Boutique (www.pieceboutique.com) from the Tarn in south-west France.
I provide clients with independent articles and features for their publications and also offer content solutions (from blog posts to full-colour magazines) to businesses all over Europe.
My work appears in titles such as New Statesman, bthere! magazine, ZDNet, French Property News, The Belfast Telegraph, The Connexion (France's national English-language newspaper) and Progressive Digital Media's range of industry titles. These include: Inside Food, Inside Drinks, Inside Packaging, Future Rail, Railway Technology, Airport Technology, Ship Technology and Mining Technology.
Topics that I cover regularly include: technology, IT, property, aviation and airports, maritime, rail, food and drink, film and television, women in business and packaging.
Having worked as a UK producer in various capacities on television, film and documentary projects from 2002 to 2009 - and still now when a good film development opportunity arises - I am a BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) member.
Since 2008, however, I have focused on pursuing my career as a journalist and am therefore also a BAJ member (British Association of Journalists).
Testimonials:
Ship Technology / Airport Technology / Rail Technology:
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Frances for almost five years, during which she has consistently proven herself as a dedicated, passionate and reliable journalist. As a person she is open, honest and engaged - qualities which have made her a great communicator, and kept her as the number one freelancer on our books for a very long time.”
Daniel Garrun, Managing Editor, NRI Digital
Inside Food / Inside Packaging / Inside Drinks / Factor magazine:
Frances has been writing for our B2B and technology magazines for several years, covering various industries from food and beverages to packaging, pharmaceuticals and transport.
I commission Frances on a regular basis across our industry titles because I can 100% rely on her to deliver engaging and well-researched copy that fits the brief perfectly each time. It’s a pleasure to work with her.
