He launched his first podcast on October 15, 2004, The MWS Media Radio Show Podcast (later the DIY Endeavors Podcast) and was one of the first podcasters to feature non-RIAA music exclusively. Since that time, he has produced four different podcasts and appeared as a guest or reader on many others. He works as a consultant helping small companies create their own podcasts, speaks at conferences and conventions about podcasting and new media, and is quoted in “Tricks of the Podcasting Masters” and other books. Matt’s current podcast is a personal “ego-cast,” Sonitotum.

Matthew made a strong run up the Amazon Charts with his first book, “Brave Men Run — A Novel of the Sovereign Era,” reaching #3 in Action & Adventure and #53 overall. “Brave Men Run” is also available for free in audio form at Podiobooks.com and several e-book editions including Amazon Kindle, iPhone / iPod Touch and DRM-free formats. Following his DIY ethic, most of his music is released with a Creative Commons Music Sharing license and is available for podcasters to use in their shows.

Matthew will speak about the huge marketing, promotional and most importantly community value creating a podcast edition of a book can bring an author. While his experience is primarily with fiction, he will also touch on how non-fiction authors can use podcasting. His success with “Brave Men Run” is comparable and in some cases far exceeded by other podcast novelists — Matthew will relate their stories and take questions. Copies of the Swarm Press paperback edition of “Brave Men Run — A Novel of the Sovereign Era” will be available for purchase from the author after his talk.
