Luke Broadbent - Luke Broadbent
I am 21-years-old and live in West Bromwich, England. My writing endeavours have usually been been in the area of sport. I have produced articles for Tennis Life magazine, as well as Sports Central.
Besides sport, I have a keen interest in politics and history with a particular focus on Asia. I studied history at university for one year before dropping out to pursue other things. I aim to go back to university to study one or two of the languages found in the East Asia region.
I also enjoy writing fiction, particularly poetry. When I was a teenager I had three poems and one short story published in various anthologies aimed at showcasing teenager's writing.
