My career has three eras to date. The first, after university, was a stint in retail. Bizarre to think of the days when I served Ringo Starr in Prada. And nearly fell into a rail of posh garms when Robbie Williams strutted through the door. Then came my PR phase... highlights include hurtling across Kingsway in Holborn with a giant turkey trying to get it cooked for a Christmas press show. And serving cocktails at the Hilton's Windows bar, where we hosted a party for Jasper Conran. Now, after a second university sentence, I am reborn as a writer, penning words for magazines and commercial clients. I'm still on the PR grapevine and happy to write PR stuff like press releases. It takes a steely will not to get roped back into being a fully-fledged PR -- in that field, money doesn't exactly grow on trees, but it is certainly easier to come by. But I'm staying focused -- a lot of sweat has gone into getting where I am and getting sidetracked could cost me more than dollar.
