James Ellsworth
Suite101.com Contributing Writer
I am a free lance writer, newly settled in Victoria for two years and becoming involved in city issues. I have completed some writing contracts here already (commemorative history for BC Pharmacists, 2008 & communication consulting). Currently writing for web sites, I am trying also to get published in BC provincial magazines, although I have some published pieces elsewhere under my belt.
This past year we have travelled a fair amount too which has helped with my travel writing- Cuba, Texas, Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia and Indonesia, our first time to Southeast Asia.
My writing resume includes:
- national and local newspapers: the Globe & Mail, the Record, Lakeland Boating
- website features, such as Cambridge Now ,www.cambridgenow.com/npps/ , Brazzil
- golf, wine & travel features on www.amaronegolf.com/
- educational texts and curriculum, World Religions, Aboriginal Spirituality (OUP), Ancient Civilizatioins for Independent Curriculum of TV Ontario.
- Interests are sports features (golf, skiing), travel, (Europe, South America, Southeast Asia) general interest highlights, such as climbing Mt Kilimanjaro to raise money and awareness for Alzheimers.
- I also have two personal projects, a memoir and an historical novel.
