Meet Your Instructor

Hi, I’m Matt. I read novels, write thrillers, and teach the craft of fiction.

I’ve published short stories in Zero Dark Thirty, Wrath Bearing Tree, OAFNation, as well as a novel. In 2017, I earned an MFA in Fiction.

After teaching hundreds of students as a creative writing professor, I started NotMFA to demystify fiction writing for busy professionals, with tried and true processes that turn your rough draft dreams into final draft reality.
