What was your first job as a journalist?

I first started as a freelance journalist for The Skinny magazine's North West office, writing features and reviews.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes - when I was a kid at my parents' house! I once wrote my grandma a letter when I was about seven asking when she'd next come to visit.

How is social media changing news?

Social media is making news more responsive, allowing those who were traditionally the audience to be part of the story.
