Writing, editing and photography by Ralph Mills 



An introduction to Ralph Mills

Writing:

I am a writer based in Nottingham, UK. My areas of experience include the environment, technology, transport, mining, education, archaeology and industrial history. I specialise in feature articles, case studies, company profiles, corporate communications, online content and technical writing.

Over the last 35 years I have written for trade magazines, corporate publications and newspapers. I have edited children's books and scientific journals. I have created manuals, guides and newsletters as well as marketing and training materials.

IT-literate, I am experienced in desktop publishing and image manipulation.

Editing and copy enhancement:

Poorly written copy and grammatical errors create confusion, frustration and bad first impressions. They result in loss of reader interest and can communicate the wrong messages. This is as true of a press release as it is of a technical manual. If, as a business or individual, you want your important copy to be read, then it usually benefits from editing by a "critical friend." This can be achieved quickly and with absolute commercial confidentiality.

Research:

I recently completed an MA in Historical Archaeology at the University of Leicester, with a leaning towards industrial archaeology and material culture. I am an enthusiastic and tenacious researcher with both science and arts experience.
