Hello,

I'm a freelance writer currently based on New South Wales' sunny south coast.

My features have been published in a range of outlets, including The Guardian, BBC, The Telegraph, WIRED, National Geographic.

Alongside journalism, I worked for the Local Storytelling Exchange for three years, a UK-based organisation pitching environmental solutions stories to print, TV and radio. I also have copywriting experience for renewables and sustainable travel brands.

I've always got an eye out for a story. For commissions and collaborations please drop a line to francescaadkins6@gmail.com.

Education

I have an MA with distinction in International Journalism from City, University of London. During the course I gained broadcast skills in radio and TV and took modules in data, social media and digital journalism.

Prior to this, I spent four years immersed in countless books (and cafes) while reading English Literature at Edinburgh University. This included a year across the pond, where I switched my lectures on the works of Shakespeare to Whitman at a small liberal arts college in Virginia, USA.
