Mel Hunter

I can't remember a time when I didn't want to be a writer, but I could never have imagined the incredible experiences my career would hold.

​

I'm now a successful freelance writer, penning news reports, lifestyle features, parenting stories and consumer articles for national newspapers and magazines.

​

I learned the craft of journalism the 'old school' way during three years on local newspapers. I then worked as a feature writer on both the Daily Mirror and The Sun, capturing the experiences and emotions of those caught up in the biggest stories of the time, from September 11 to the Asian Tsunami.

​

I've interviewed everyone from A-list celebs to homeless refugees and grieving families, telling every story with the sensitivity and attention to detail it deserved.

​

After The Sun, I took up the reins as the news editor on Cosmopolitan for five years, compiling the reports, real life stories and investigations on this iconic title.

 

Which brings me to where I am now. My work as a freelance journalist combines both my newspaper and magazine experience. I have an eye for detail and a nose for news. It's why commissioning editors come back to me again and again.

​

As well as writing articles, I am available for media training, copy-writing, proof-reading, compiling brochures and reports, and ghost-writing books, blogs, websites or promotional material. Just click on the tabs above for more details.
