Sufiyaan Salam is a writer and former animator from Blackburn. He’s working on several TV & feature projects, and co-wrote the short film MAGID / ZAFAR, which won the BIFA award in 2025 and is shortlisted for a BAFTA for Best Short Film. Wimmy Road Boyz, winner of the #MerkyBooks New Writers’ prize, is his first novel.
WIMMY ROAD BOYZ is a blistering story of masculinity, violence and love set over the course of a single, surreal night from a wholly original new British talent.
