“I worked on a chapbook manuscript with Matthew in early 2023. Not only did I walk away with a polished manuscript, I gained valuable skills as a writer. Matthew has a lovely way of bringing out the best in your writing. I never felt pressure, only gentle compassion toward my artistry and my poems that felt vulnerable and delicate. Direct in his feedback and advice, he has a way of nurturing pieces that need more by asking questions that led me to build upon the pieces that were lacking. His editorial skills are valuable and generative for any writer lucky enough to work with him. I am more confident in myself and my writing and would not hesitate to work with him again.”
