Lucas is a writer and poet from Central Scotland. As a child he grew up with a love and passion for writing. Pursuing this passion has always been something he wanted to do and he picked it up again last year when deciding to enrol on a Creative Writing module as part of an Open University Diploma of Higher Education. He enjoys writing as it gives him a chance to explore different topics and really connect with people. Lucas is dyslexic and that is another reason why he loves writing – to show other dyslexic people that dyslexia doesn't have to be a barrier.
