A
veteran journalist based in Winnipeg, Manitoba,
I've freelanced (as Wordsink.ca) since 1994, after
more than 20 years as a reporter in newspapers and in TV
news. (Check my Bio for
details.) I love soft adventure, history, nature, and
cultural travel, and specialize in Canada, Mexico, and
the Caribbean. Lately, I've moved into fiction. Stay
tuned on that.
I'm
also a photographer (check the Photofiles
here for samples or search my Alamy images). Many of the
more obscure spots I cover aren't photographed much, and
it seems to make editors' lives easier if I can provide
top-notch images with the copy. (I shoot with the Sony
full-frame A99, and use a Sony Nex 7 as my second
camera.)Contact me: waytiuk@wordsink.ca |
