Huge thanks to poet Rachel Lewis for publishing this interview with me on her Substack A Poet’s Work. We discuss different aspects of writing about grief – the reasons, benefits and dangers. I also touch on my forthcoming collection Phantoms. I enjoyed being made to think (after a night of limited sleep, camping with my daughter in the garden). It was a great experience all round!
About Me
An award-winning poet and educator based in the South West of England.
Matt is a fine communicator who engages audiences and groups quickly and easily. He enables and energises people, whatever their age or background. He is not afraid to explore unusual routes to engage people and it is this precisely that so often generates a successful outcome. People are surprised by him and, in turn, they frequently surprise themselves.
