WelcomeWriterI spend much of my time nowadays developing my creative non-fiction writing. A book about "coming out as a thinker" has been a long time in coming but is now in the pipeline! See also my blog and publications. (I also have an author's blog at www.alidonaldson.uk.)
Writing coachI coach and advise people from many different walks of life. Read more.
Narrative evaluationI spent several years helping UK charity Macmillan Cancer Support to capture the story of its long-term work with groups of doctors, patients and nurses. This not only created a tangible record of this work (we called the process "making the invisible visible"). It also provided evidence of the value of engaging these groups in improving patient care. It culminated in a co-authored book, "Communities of influence: improving healthcare through conversations and connections" (Donaldson, Lank, Maher: 2011).
