Johnny is a 25 year-old poet and writer who is originally from Reading but currently lives in London. He is neurodivergent(Aspergers/ADHD) and as such this has come to have a definitive influence on his writing. He is passionate about portraying the challenges(and perks) of navigating the world with a brain wired differently to most people. Themes of neurodivergence feature heavily in his writing as well as general mental health and social commentary, and sometimes a mix of all three. Being something of a nerd he also has a keen interest in history and sociology, and hopes to pursue a career in freelance writing through which he can express these interests, as well as eventually being able to travel the world and learning all he can about it.
