Portfolio

Hello, welcome to my portfolio. I am Natasha, known as Tash to friends and family, but published as Natasha Coyle. I currently work in the communications department at Glasgow Warriors Rugby Club. So anything TikTok or Instagram related, that's me! I studied an MLitt in Fantasy Literature at the University of Glasgow and will be graduating with a Distinction and completed my undergrad English degree at the University of Exeter, obtaining a First.

I was a journalism fellow on The Student View's New Creator Fellowship, mentee in Women in Journalism Scotland's mentorship programme, and was shortlisted for Student of the Year at the 44th Scottish Press Awards.

My podcast Tash Talks University Life is available to download on Apple and Spotify Podcasts. In each episode, I discuss, along with a special guest, a variety of aspects of university life. As a recent graduate, I want my podcast to give my listeners an inside knowledge to university life and how to best navigate their time as a student.

I am passionate about sport, good food, and comedy. I am an avid lover of cats, coffee, and outdoor adventures. Big Leicester Tigers fan. I'm a badminton player and Level 1 coach, currently qualifying for my Level 2.

Current projects include podcasting and writing a historical fantasy novel inspired by my studies. Stay tuned!

From the East Midlands, England. Currently residing in Glasgow.

I first drafted this story late in 2020 and it's based on a true story. This version has gone through numerous drafts but this version I submitted to a short story competition and made it onto the shortlist.
