Matt Chamberlain grew up in Wigan, Lancashire, and now lives in southern England. He has been fascinated by the English language all his life, dabbling in poetry since childhood but remained reluctant to keep, let alone share, his linguistic doodles. In 2014 he self-published his first collection: Love, misery and fruit crumble. He is working on his second collection and regularly performs his work in and around London.
