What inspired you to write your memoir?
I wrote this book based on the 8 years I lived in Salt Lake City… filled with marriage, lies. spies, and poverty. It has been a work of love and healing for me… more importantly it is a book that will let people know that crazy people actually are real and dealing with them will affect you.
About your Book:Matthew Timion’s “Leaving Salt Lake City” is the story of a personal train wreck. The story starts when he moves to Salt Lake City to live an idyllic life with the woman of his dreams and the child they later adopt. Suddenly, his perfect life turns into a nightmare filled with spies, lies, betrayal, and enduring poverty. Matthew must forge a new life for his son and for himself by becoming the leader of his own life while facing the painful reality of truly meeting the woman he married for the first time.
How did you decide how to publish your book and where is it published through:
Self published through amazon
How do you see writing a Memoir as different from writing other genres of books?
I can only write about my own experiences. Anything else (fiction, etc) is beyond me
