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.
