Bright Spark Media was set up in 2005 by me, Cora Lydon, a freelance journalist and editor based in Suffolk.Since starting out in the publishing industry in 2000 I’ve built up a varied portfolio of work for magazines, websites and corporate clients. I’m able to add real value to the titles I write for; coming up with innovative feature ideas, producing captivating, relevant and interesting copy and meeting tight deadlines and briefs.I’ve also edited a variety of magazines covering topics from personal assistants and interiors to education and building developments. Working with small publishers, often as the only editorial member of staff, has meant a crash course in other areas of publishing and excellent experience in a range of skills such as picture research, budget handling, commissioning, sub editing and proof reading.I can also turn my hand to producing sparkling copy for corporate and promotional literature, websites and brochures to help raise companies' profiles. I’m a published author of several books on topics including going green, healthy eating for children and stress.In short, I love to write – whether it’s a piece on an extreme detox in Austria, how EQ can boost your self esteem, an interview with Dragon James Caan or what happens when you fall in love with the man you divorced.
