International media experience
Linda Vergnani
An award-winning freelance journalist and highly experienced editor, I have had features published in more than 30 newspapers and magazines on five continents. They include newspapers and magazines in Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, the United States, South-East Asia and South Africa.
Publications that have carried my features range from BBC Wildlife to The Sydney Morning Herald, from Australian Doctor to Luxury Travel. See writing for a list of publications and examples of articles.
In 2001 I won the top prize in the South African Science and Technology Journalism Awards for my article Arachnoid Park.
Editorial consultancy
With extensive newspaper, magazine, book and corporate editing experience, I also run my own consultancy Eco Editors and am a partner in Express Editors. I do content writing and editing for corporate and not-for-profit clients as well as for universities and scientific institutions. One of my strengths is conveying complex information in a lively, engaging and factually accurate manner. Clients I have worked for include WWF Australia, the Nature Conservation Council of NSW, Department of Justice NSW, Tourism Australia and CSIRO.
Background
My background is in the mainstream press and I am a former South African correspondent of The Chronicle of Higher Education. My previous roles include head of communications of the Independent Development Trust in South Africa and senior book editor for Focus Publishing in Sydney.
