That's right, after 3 years here with HubPages I am finally posting my Bio. 

My name is Matthew, I am 46, and I've been writing as a hobby and as an occassional freelancer for about 20 years now. 

During those 20 years I have had a number of "day" jobs.  I have worked in a meat packing plant, been a machinist, restaurant cook, store clerk and had my own home computer repair business.  So I might write on any of those topics among a variety of others, and of course feel free to ask about anything associated with those jobs.

I started on HubPages a little over 3 years ago.  At that time I was married, unemployed, and looking for a way to waste a some time and maybe make a little money.  Life got interesting and I ended up being on hiatus from Feb. of 2008 until just a few days ago.  I am now employed full time and widowed.

I love animals, have 1 dog, he's a dorkie, and a cat, she's a ragdoll.  I enjoy poetry, especially haiku, though have found that enjoying something does not make you good at it!

Hopefully I will get back into the writing groove and we will all get to know each other better.
