Sebastian Melmoth was born on 5th March 1976 in Staffordshire.

He has a vast experience of working with in local communities with high levels of deprivation and draws on some of his experience of seeing the hardships of life. His writing inspiration came recently following the death of his mother and the outpouring of emotions and feelings has helped him with his mental health and bereavement but also have meant that Sebastian has developed a passion for writing which he hasn’t stopped since picking up the pen.

In 2019, Sebastian published his first Poetry Chapbook entitled As the Soul Writes as part of a series of books he hopes will resonate with readers and provide messages of hope. Each poem that is written comes from the soul of the writer and takes on many poetic and artistic forms. Sebastian has also recently been getting out and about to read his poetry to audiences such as The Big Comfy Bookstore in Coventry as well as entering competitions to raise the profile of his works.
