WHO IS NATHAN SCATCHERD?
Nathan James Scatcherd Esq. crawled out of a swamp in 1892 with no memory and a thirst for rum, and ever since, he has been giving the benefit of his opinion to anyone who will listen. He started writing 'seriously' in 2012 and has tried to keep busy over the years, publishing as much and as often as he can, mostly about films and music. He also enjoys writing about himself in the third person as it makes him feel important.
He graduated from Sheffield Hallam University in 2014 with a First Class Degree in Screen Studies.
This site is a blog in its own right, a portfolio of selected work from elsewhere, and occasionally an outlet for various bits and pieces of creative writing/idle waffle. Feedback and criticism are always welcome. Thanks!
