Work Undertaken Why should you hire me to tell the world how to use your product? Because I appreciate that people approach new products from different angles, with alternative agendas and different sets of expectations. While I understand how your product works, I specialise in translating that knowledge to people who don't, in a way that they can hook into. Whether that process requires words, pictures or a combination of both, I will find the best way to take your product to a wide audience. My combined approach to writing, illustration, localisation and page design means that you need only talk to one supplier.

If you've got a gadget, widget or a wotsit that needs explanation, wherever you are in the world, let's talk!

Biography My interest in all things electronic began at an early age and persisted through college.

I worked for several computer companies before going solo in 1993. Since then I have worked on many projects for a wide range of companies. I have purposefully kept things small and personal – I do not outsource any writing, illustration or page layout work because I know that my clients value my personal attention to detail.

I cross numerous industry boundaries and have produced documentation for products ranging from mobile phones to security equipment, computer devices to LED stage lighting, marine positioning to traffic control systems and many more. You can find examples of all such projects within the portfolio section of my website (www.ctxd.com).

Whether the project requires printed guides, online PDF files or help files, my approach is to determine what your readers expect and to answer their questions in the most appropriate manner. My combined approach to writing, illustration and page design means that I can communicate with the reader on numerous levels. This greatly increases the chances that they will derive their answers from the documentation, rather than your overworked telephone help line.
