Humbled and honoured to have won Best Print Writer 2017 at the British Society Of Magazine Editors’ Talent awards. I’d like to say thanks to the team at WIRED and my editor Greg Williams. I’d also like to thank Abel Welwean, the fixer on the “Ebola’s Ghost” story, and Gian Volpicelli, who contributed some Italian reporting on “Hype Machine”. Winning a BSME Award really is one of those things you only dream about.
