He started finding an interest in writing in late 2009, but never published the writing publically. He had aspirations to write and let a close friend who publically wrote for a high ranking member in the University, but they discouraged and told Matthew he really should not spend time writing. He decided to personally work on honing his skill by reading all genres of books, writing style guides, and any piece of literature he could get his hands on. He married in January of 2011 and his wife gave birth to their son Russell (Rusty) in 2013. After their first child was born they both decided to move back to the Dallas area to be close to friends and family. The following fall Matthew faced some health concerns that caused him to resign from his job in visual merchandising and focus on business ventures and continuing to practice his writing skill. In mid-2014, Matthew decided to begin slowly releasing some of his writing for the public to read. He received positive feedback which encouraged him to continue his studies in reading and practicing his skills. Matthew spent a great majority of time reading philosophical writings to expand his writing style and vocabulary by Philosophers such as Immanual Kant, Soren Kierkergard, Fredrich Nietzsche, Karl Marx, John Locke, Thomas Aquinas, Rene Descartes, John Stuart Mill, Simone de Beauvoir, and Martin Heidegger. In the end of 2015 Matthew began frequently publishing his writings and receiving positive and renowned response. He continued, greatly enjoying writing about topics related to government, social science, U.S. politics, social issues, and satire. In Fabuary 2016 Matthew was chosen by EzineArticles and received the "Diamond Expert Author" award which is given to less than 1% of their 500,000 contributors. Matthew has a dedication to writing, and is always looking to exceed his skills and learn new ways to express himself in the written word. Matthew's biggest aspiration currently is to have a book published and become a New York Time's Best Sellers. ...more

I love writing. In fact, I find it addicting. I can spend hours doing it and think it has been only a few minutes.

Many times books and self-help resources tell you to "Make a Plan" and follow it. I do the opposite. I do not plan at all. I just start and go for it. Thus far, that has me releasing a book in only writing it a month. One book, and one month? But, that is not all I do.
