Samuel Wilson

Freelance Journalist

United Kingdom

Since I started blogging at the age of just thirteen I have come a long way. Now, I am finally emerging in the British journalistic scene, developing my skills and building a strong, loyal client-base who I hope to be able to work with for a long time.

Despite the fact that I have been writing for just six years, I have already established myself on several large platforms and websites on the internet. I have written for websites as big as WhatCulture, The Tab and RealSport but am also fiercely loyal to the smaller environments that have helped me grow and develop my skills.
