It has been translated into three languages. One year later, in the fall of 2010, I published my second novel, Unexpectedly, Milo.
Something Missing was published in August of 2009 and has since been translated into six different languages. In the spring of 2008, under the guidance of my agent, Taryn Fagerness, I sold my first novel, Something Missing, to Broadway Books, an imprint of Doubleday, and thus made one of my childhood dreams come true. I am an author, a storyteller and a teacher. Matthew grew up in the small town of Blackstone, Massachusetts, where he made a name for himself by dying twice before the age of eighteen and becoming the first student in his high school to be suspended for inciting riot upon himself. Matthew is married to friend and fellow teacher, Elysha, and they have a daughter named Clara and a son named Charlie.
He is a former West Hartford Teacher of the Year and a three-time Moth StorySLAM champion. When he is not hunched over a computer screen, he fills his days as an elementary school teacher, a wedding DJ, a storyteller and a life coach. Matthew Dicks is the author of the novels Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend, Something Missing and Unexpectedly, Milo and the rock opera The Clowns. Currently-lives in Newington, Connecticut.Education-Manchester Community College.Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend is a triumph of courage and imagination that touches on the truths of life, love, and friendship as it races to a heartwarming.and heartbreaking conclusion. Patterson does the unthinkable, it is up to Budo and a team of imaginary friends to save Max-and Budo must ultimately decide which is more important: Max’s happiness or his own existence. Patterson, a teacher in the Learning Center who believes that she alone is qualified to care for this young boy. Some people say he has Asperger’s, but most just say he’s “on the spectrum.” None of this matters to Budo, who loves Max unconditionally and is charged with protecting him from the class bully, from awkward situations in the cafeteria, and even in the bathroom stalls. But Budo feels his age and thinks constantly of the day when eight-year-old Max Delaney will stop believing in him.
He's been alive for more than five years, which is positively ancient in the world of imaginary friends.
