Morat

Morat is an award winning photographer, music journalist, and fiction writer. Unfortunately those awards were for drinking and not for photography or writing, but he still has the trophies. He worked for Kerrang! magazine for 19 years before moving on to Metal Hammer in 2008, and then back to Kerrang! in 2019. He also wrote two fantasy books, The Road To Fero City and The Road To Roo Inn, which are available on Amazon, the former being described as 'Sons Of Anarchy meets The Lords Of The Rings on drugs at a cage fight', while the latter has been been described as 'Game Of Thrones with a Motorhead soundtrack...and dog farts'. Both descriptions are accurate. His new book is about punk rock.

His website (morat.rocks) is still free of advertising, and if you buy his books, he might be able to keep it that way.

When he's not doing rock stuff he shoots fetish and pinup stuff. He thinks that writing about himself in the third person is silly.
