Andrew Hunt - Andrew Hunt
My first paid article appeared in 1990, this and a number of others being under the pseudonym Steven Rennard. All told, I have contributed to over 20 magazines, among them the sister publications Evergreen and This England, plus others like Wisden Cricket Monthly and The Cricket Statistician, the latter being the journal of the Association of Cricket Statisticians and Historians, of which I am a member. Generally, there is a historical slant to my articles and they reflect my mainly sporting interests, a field in which I have also worked as a proof-reader.
