I'm not an engineer, but I trained as a Design & Technology teacher specialising in Engineering and taught Technology and Electronics for a while.That background together with a lifelong interest in anything technical gives me the ability to take quite complex technical issues and render them comprehensible to other people.

At the moment I write regularly for two technical trade magazines, Biofuels International and Tank Storage Magazine.

Neither magazine can be read on-line, but you can download a free copy if you register on the sites.

EDITORS - Trade Mags

Writing for the technical trade magazines requires a certain amount of technical know-how, and the ability to write interesting copy. Not a lot of people have both, and some copy from companies' engineers can be very dull. Contact me for a more interesting version.

EDITORS - General

Every one of your readers uses technology, but very few want to read a technical report on it. On the other hand many journalists without a technical background struggle to produce copy that is technically accurate and tend to focus on the shininess and cost, or go overboard on the scaremongering.
