About me and my books.
I would have stayed
Revelations
I write because I like writing, and hope my books will please and find empathy with my readers. I write about people and life's challenges.
Books are like air balloons. When you start writing one, you're never sure where it will take you.

Why I stopped writing crime novels and started writing about people,
Because there’s much to explore and write about. People are fascinating and unpredictable; they deal with what life throws at them in different ways. Times of grief, times of joy, their relationships, emotions, anxieties, stresses, loves, hates, and jealousies – all fodder to build compelling stories.
Writing about people is writing about life: its imperfections, its wonders, and its miraculous achievements.
For me, what could be of greater interest – how people navigate their path through life’s rocky journey.
My last five books, Truth is not always true, Night Running, Otto and Frankie, Revelations and I would have stayed are books about people.
Mathew N Baker books are all crime novels.
