About Matthew

Matthew is a San Francisco-based LGBTQ+ novelist and screenwriter. The first book in his Jonathan Flite series, The Confessions of Jonathan Flite, was lauded as “genre-defying” by Publishers Weekly in 2014 and was a Finalist in the 2018 ScreenCraft Cinematic Book Contest. Since 2019, his first four film and TV projects have all garnered industry consideration and circulation, including The Extraordinary Life of Angelina Mulberry, which placed as a finalist in multiple contests and earned a Stage 32 “Double Recommend” rating in 2020. Matthew writes what he likes to call “existential thrillers”—page turners that challenge society’s preconceived notions about life’s biggest questions.
