Author: Matt Larson

With my first book, 4000s by 40, released this fall, I am fulfilling a lifelong dream of writing, and am excited to continue the journey of storytelling with future projects—so much so that the day after I published 4000s by 40, I began my next work. Much of my inspiration comes from nature. My early love for the ocean, found on the South Shore of Massachusetts, has transitioned into a deep passion for the mountains here in New Hampshire, and I wanted to share that with my first book. If you’d like to connect or have any inquiries, you can reach out to me at [email protected]. I’m also on Instagram and Facebook at wanderingmatt8. Happy reading!

You’ve noticed it, haven’t you? The lakes that no longer freeze? The January rains? Has it caused your mind to flinch and consider the possibility of different climates? Of warmer winters? It’s hard to discard this sensation as a seasonal whim, and perhaps doing so would be of stoic but cowardly design. For if I…
