Bringing it back to basics...
Even with the advent of video guides, there's still a warm fuzzy place left in the hearts of gamers for well written strategy guides. Presented with the ability to inject copious amounts of personality and energy into such guides, I personally enjoy writing either the all-encompassing 100% guides, as well as the smaller and more focused bespoke guides (such as boss strategies, item locations etc).
My written guides have been published in a range of well loved UK gaming publications such as N64 magazine, NGC magazine, Official Nintendo Magazine and Gamesmaster magazine. Such guides include double page, 4-page and 6-page spread guides as well as a cover mounted 80-page tips book for NGC magazine in June 2006.
All guides were produced within set word counts and to very strict (and often very tight) deadlines. On most occasions I have also provided the screengrabs along with the copy for publication, to ensure that the readers gain the most benefit possible from the guide. Along with scans of my published work (available in my ‘Previous Work’ section), I have created a few mini sample guides especially for this site (in various formats such as .doc and .pdf). These sample guides can be found below.
