About me
I grew up in York in the north of England, then read Modern and Medieval Languages at Cambridge University.
My working life has revolved around the sound and meaning of words. I have worked as a phonetician for the Oxford English Dictionary, as a translator (e.g. for the High Court in London and for a former French President), and as an editor of academic and educational books. I have also taught a total of four languages in five different countries to people from 5 to 65 years old.
And all along, I have written. My poems have won prizes, and been used by other people and projects for over 15 years. I now use them myself, in live shows and workshops that I have developed for a range of adult and child audiences. In 2007, due to popular demand, I released the first CD of my poems.
The advent of digital photography opened up a whole new dimension in my work. I won a prize in the first photography competition I entered (in 2007), and as a result was invited by the Woodland Trust to become a Volunteer Photographer for them. My photographs have also been published in the media and in the scientific literature, as well as in my Buzzing! CD booklet, calendar and cards.
I set up and run theBigBuzz on the permaculture principles of Earth Care, Fair Share, People Care.
So far in 2008 I have won:
