William Rayfet Hunter is a freelance writer and junior doctor. They were born and raised in the North West of England. They studied Medicine with a Masters in Clinical and Forensic Psychology at Newcastle University. They now live and work in East London.

Their work in Accident & Emergency before, during and since the pandemic heavily informs their non-fiction writing, which explores health, race, power structures and politics. Their work has been published by VICE News, woo and The Evening Standard. Their queerness and mixed British and Jamaican heritage both inform their fiction writing. They strongly believe that there are a thousand beautiful stories to be told in every human interaction.

They are working on their debut novel, which won the #MerkyBooks New Writers’ Prize 2022.

They are represented by Kat Aitken at United Agents.
