This has given me great experience in time management skills and deadline awareness., In February 2012, one of my short stories won a flash fiction competition and was published in an e-book. In my spare time, I write a fashion based blog and create web content on a freelance basis. I contribute to an online fashion magazine, Lady M Presents, as well as writing short fiction stories. In the past, I have written product copy for an online bathroom company and reviewed household products for a company based in the US., I am confident in using the following software: Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook, Open Office, Scribus,my current company's bespoke database, Internet Explorer, Firefox; various content management systems such as WordPress, Blogger and MailChimp; social media tools such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Pintrest.

My background is mainly in marketing and copy. I contribute and create promotional literature and material for the company including trip information packs, web content, monthly newsletters and blog updates. I proof read and edit work of my own, and that of others, before publishing or sending to print. I am 'tester' for the company website, collaborating with our web support team to test the system and report bugs., In previous roles, I had to work to tight deadlines and ever changing briefs as well as travel for my job.
