Matthew Dicks: A Voice for Storytelling and Imagination

Matthew Dicks (born February 15, 1971) is an American novelist, storyteller, columnist, playwright, blogger, and teacher whose work explores the transformative power of narrative. Born in Blackstone Valley, Rhode Island, he possesses a remarkable ability to weave tales that resonate deeply with audiences, blending humor, vulnerability, and profound insight into themes of identity, connection, and human experience. His distinctive style—characterized by deceptively simple prose and emotionally honest observations—has garnered critical acclaim and established him as a prominent figure in contemporary literature.

Early Life & Education: Dicks’ fascination with storytelling began early in life, nurtured by his upbringing in a family steeped in tradition and folklore. He pursued undergraduate studies at Bridgewater State University, where he honed his writing skills and developed an enduring passion for crafting narratives that capture the essence of human emotion.
Literary Debut & Recognition: Dicks’ breakthrough came with “Something Missing” (2009), a debut novel that immediately captivated readers with its poignant exploration of grief and remembrance. This success propelled him into the spotlight, launching a prolific writing career marked by imaginative fiction and self-help guides.
Notable Works: His subsequent novels—including “Milo” (2010), “Memoirs of an Imaginary Friend” (2012), “The Perfect Comeback of Caroline Jacobs” (2014), “Twenty-One Truths About Love” (2019), and “The Other Mother” (2020)—continue to delve into complex psychological landscapes, examining relationships, family dynamics, and the search for meaning. These books have been translated into over 26 languages, demonstrating Dicks’ global reach and impact.
Beyond Fiction: Recognizing the importance of sharing his storytelling expertise with a wider audience, Dicks expanded his creative endeavors beyond novels. He authored “Storyworthy” (2018), offering practical advice for harnessing the power of narrative to enhance personal growth and creativity, and “Someday Is Today” (2022), further solidifying his position as a champion of imaginative thinking.
Current Engagement & Influence: Currently, Dicks serves as humor columnist for Seasons Magazine and contributes regularly to Slate Magazine’s “Ask a Teacher” column. He is also the creator and cohost of podcasts like “Speak Up Storytelling” and “Boy vs Girl,” furthering his commitment to fostering dialogue and inspiring creativity within communities.

Dicks' work distinguishes itself through its masterful use of language—often described as deceptively simple yet profoundly evocative. He skillfully employs techniques borrowed from classic storytelling traditions, blending humor with heartfelt emotion to create narratives that linger in the reader’s mind long after they’ve finished reading. His ability to tap into universal human experiences has cemented his reputation as a storyteller who genuinely cares about connecting with audiences on an emotional level. His artistic output includes captivating pieces like “Winged Victory of Africa,” “Numinous,” and “Colossal”—each demonstrating Dicks' dedication to exploring themes of beauty, contemplation, and the sublime. These artworks serve as tangible representations of his creative vision—a testament to his enduring influence on contemporary art and literature.
