Miles Amoore FPA Feature Print Web Award Winner 2009
|
|
Last night at the Foreign Press Association Media Awards in London, Miles Amoore won the Foreign Press Association’s Feature Print Web Award for his article
Blood Brothers Scarred by War Below you can see the quality of the journalists he was up against from TV, radio, print and of course the web. 
I first met Miles after his mother had been given an award, ironically by the Armed Forces Art Society for her and even more ironically presented by Kate Adie!! Read this early article by Miles, written to celebrate his mothers win: Sally Wins London Art Award When I heard of his dream to become a journalist I suggested he pop round for a coffee and we would see how we could help each other. I have a website, On This Day in History and a vision to make it more interesting but this would take a ton of hard work and I had no budget. Miles Amoore, keen to keep his brain busy and do something that could up his profile read 40,000 words a day and wrote 15,000!! In November 2006 he started work on breaking each day into its own micro site. The most popular of which is still a page on the microsite for 2nd December about Herman Cortes, the day he died: 1547 Herman Cortes (still 3rd on Google) A few weeks later, on the way to dinner with John Redwood MP at his club up in London, we also have PoliticalEditor.co.uk which brought in the diplomatic aspect of his ambition to become a foreign correspondent, our man in... Miles told me of his pending interview with The Newbury Weekly News and if I minded... of course not, this is your life, live it... The rest is history, 12 months later he was in Afghanistan with a copy of Seven Pillars of Wisdom in his kit bag! "Well done Miles, when we met in the park on your birthday you said you might never write another piece like it ... well if you don’t you’ve got this Award which represents recognition by the true professionals in your trade ... what better accolade could you have? And it's only taken you 3 years ... just think what you'll achieve in the next 30!! Enjoy the limelight, double your fee and keep your bloody head down!" Jon Davey Social Media Director And mate of an Award winning journalist don’t ya know!
