Hello, I'm Richard

And in case you were wondering, I'm a UK based freelance writer, journalist and professional producer of many wonderful words, including "guano" and "scrivener". Why not drop me an e-mail, follow me on Twitter, and if you like what you're reading, hire me to write a few good words for you?

I’ve been at it for over a decade now, in places like PC Gamer, Rock Paper Shotgun, Eurogamer, Edge, Gamespy, Tap!, SFX and many, many others, online and in print. Over the years, that’s included writing everything from reviews to columns and news comics, putting together hundreds of in-depth features and often deploying weapons grade punning. People seem to like them. Check out a few of them below.

Looking for a writer for your publications or projects? You should give me a shout. Most of my work at the moment revolves around articles, columns, reviews and similar, but I’m definitely interested in picking up things I can sink my teeth into a little more as well. Hit my e-mail and let me know what you need.

I write. I never claimed to be photogenic.
