Matthew Head
I'm a 22 year old Theology Graduate who is trying to make his way as a writer. I've got my own series of novels on the go, "The Chronicles of Darkness," and I also write my own blog - www.ineverforget.wordpress.com
My favourite subjects are history and religion, I absolutely adore religious folklore and myth and legend. The supernatural and the paranormal also fascinate me. I love to visit places of historical or religious importance and get some inspiration from them for a really good piece of writing. I love to travel, and an ideal day for me would be going somewhere brand new, somewhere I've never been before, whether it's 5 miles or 500 miles away, and then finding all the places of interest and learning something new and exciting. I am a geek but I love it.
