In the writing Matthew delivers hints of his creative space, a second-floor apartment filled with prints and photographs gathered from magazines, books, family, and friends. He is a writer that has mostly worked with plays. This play-writing feel comes through in the work because it is deeply rooted in the observational descriptions of various family, friends, and himself which are the main characters in the writing along with his cats. The writing also tells of his daily struggle with schizophrenia. This is particularly transparent in the writing identified as, In Hollywood.
