Freelance profile

Michael Aylwin

Studied at Bristol University and Guildford School of Acting. Upon graduating from Guildford in 1996, an indecipherable logic led to a career in sportswriting, working for The Times and various magazines. Wrote critically acclaimed book on pro rugby at Saracens, "The Red and the Black (Glory and Uncertainty at Saracens Ltd)" (Mainstream, 1999). Became rugby editor of the Observer in 2000. Alongside other freelance work, currently writing a novel (not sport-related), which after two years' work might be finished soon. (For the sake of posterity and amusement, that last sentence was written in November 2001.)
