M.A.Lutman

Slovenian born writer with a London Creative Writing degree, working as a copywriter in Madrid. Words have always been my passion and I've been writing short stories since I was young. I knew from a young age I had a strong connection to the English language and since I decided to live abroad, I found it is the language I can truly express myself in. I enjoy writing poetry and experimenting new styles, however, I am currently in the process of writing my first novel. With many ideas in my head, I am hoping that one of my current short stories will evolve into a longer, somewhat coherent piece that I can forever be proud of.
