Matt Gillis
Children’s Book Writer

I write and illustrate my own children's books. I am new to children's books, and I have been working on two series. This has been a labor of love, giving me a great opportunity to work with my young sons who are full of ideas and suggestions.

I create. I call it my left-handedness. I have always looked at something with its potential in mind. I am always trying to fix things, in the sense that a blank page or canvas needs to be filled.

I need a publisher who would like to invest in a great series of well illustrated children's books for younger children.

My education is in Banking and Finance. My artistic education has come from a world of experience with trial and error and a passion for creativity.

My only published writing was a series of how-to's I wrote for a home and garden website along with being a starving artist. I have been commissioned for various works of art from many different styles and mediums.
