The Collaboration
In 2011-2012, I worked as an editorial contributor to Cosy City magazine, a print publication of the Free Presse media group based in Le Bourget du Lac (Savoie).
Subject Matter
Cosy City covers trends in design, decoration, architecture, arts, fashion, and a few other lifestyle subjects in cities of the French Alps, including Grenoble, Chambéry, Aix-les-Bains, Annecy, and the Leman area. Although a freely distributed publication, Cosy City follows right in the footsteps of Cosy Mountain, another magazine in the group's portfolio, and shares the same high quality presentation.
My Work
My contribution included finding, pitching and researching stories, carrying out interviews, writing and cutting articles to agreed upon length, sourcing supporting material. The subjects I worked on greatly varied in length, ranging from short news to focus articles and multipage featured stories.

Other collaborations with Free Presse
