Lara Shingles

Self-motivated, organised and bursting with ideas. An enthusiastic and hard-working journalist currently looking for short, medium or long term work opportunities.

Having recently graduated from Southampton Solent University with a First Class Honours Degree in Magazine Journalism, I now work predominantly as a freelance journalist.

My most recent work can be found at Inkygoodness.com, and the award-winning arts, entertainment and leisure magazine, SoGlos - both of which are publications that I continue to write for on a regular basis.

I also run my own personal website, where I publish a mix of reviews, features, interviews and opinion pieces, as well as BuzzFeed-type posts, focusing on arts, lifestyle and culture.

My bookshelves are overflowing with a diverse range of both men’s and women’s magazines from across the world, though favourites include Hunger, Boat, Oh Comely, Frankie, Dumbo Elephant, Suitcase, Wrap, Eye and i-D (plus so many more honestly!).

When I’m not writing or picking up more publications to take home, I enjoy doing anything new, creative or (dangerously) adventurous. I also fancy myself as a closet opera singer and Cher impersonator, so that takes practice too…

Whether you have any potential work opportunities for me; want to find out more about my work and I; or just fancy a bit of chat, feel free to get in touch via my email, or any of the apps listed below.
