About The Author

Matt Halse

Matt Halse is a classical scholar and Cambridge graduate with a lifelong passion for the precision, history, and wit of the English language. Striking a deliberate balance between light-hearted British comedy, rich cultural nostalgia, and deep structural craftsmanship, Matt’s work turns everyday observations, language quirks, and historical sagas into perfectly scanned, bite-sized poetic masterpieces.

The 1,360 Limericks for Life Collection is a sweeping, multi-volume comedic chronicle designed to entertain, educate, and celebrate the limitless playground of words. Volume One is available now, with subsequent volumes releasing monthly. When not auditing metres or tracking down the origins of obscure slang, Matt can be found exploring classical histories or enjoying a cold, well-earned beer.
