Matthew Bunch was born in a small town outside San Diego, California. The fourth of four children, Matt learned to read from an early age. Often found with his nose in a book, he’d resist when called to dinner and after hurriedly gulping the last bite, would quickly return to his books.
He spent much of his youth at the library and the local librarians knew him by name, allowing him to check-out the same number of books as adults.
He wrote his first short story when he was twelve.

Matthew’s imagination is boundless, creating multiple worlds for his friends to explore and hundreds of characters for them to meet. His interests range from Epic Fantasy to Science Fiction to the Supernatural.

When I cannot move in one direction I change gears, back out, and go in another, referring to the many blurbs I've saved. Writers write. (less)
