Matt Carrell quit the investment industry to spend more time writing stories. "I'd mapped out this great idea for stealing a billion dollars from my company, unfortunately the CEO found the plan on my desk. I had to tell him I was writing a book or it might have been jail time!" Vortex has since become a highly acclaimed novel with an equally well received sequel.
He started his writing career with Thai Lottery and Thai Kiss - focused on the darker side of Thailand's infamous nightlife.
Blood Brothers is a story about the always newsworthy Thai police - readers attest to its authenticity and Matt still finds passport control at Bangkok airport a daunting experience in case the authorities make the connection.
Turning his hand to films - Matt has recently received an award from TopShorts Festival for Best Original Story - for the screenplay adaptation of his short - Crazy Medicine.
