Time Spent

Matthew M. Trusskey was born on March 26, 1957 of military parents in Spokane, Washington. He traveled extensively with his parents until graduation from high school. Upon entering into adult life, driven by a passion to feel what he had learned, he continued to wander around the world.

While living in isolation on the Greenland Ice Cap from 1979 - 1981, his literary career sparked and he began putting his writings onto paper. His career blossomed again after a disabling injury occurred in 1985.

"The Pain of Too Much Tenderness" was completed during his convalescence. During the next two years, he wrote "Attitude Adjustment," which considers the ever changing human condition; and "Busy Streets" which is a delightfully deep look at the city Mr. Trusskey called home for those years.

In 2004, Matt was inspired to summarize and put together his complete writings as a collection and formally publish this work.
