Local Author Matt Edwards will be stopping by The Barn Owl on Saturday, October 19th to sign copies of his books “Ways and Truths and Lives” and “Icarus Never Flew ‘Round Here”.

Matt Edwards, author of “Ways and Truths and Lives”, was born and raised in Boise, Idaho, formerly the Northwest’s best kept secret, where he developed an affinity for literature: both the challenge of understanding it and the potential to be understood through it. This propelled Matt to study English at Boise State University and devote himself to teaching high school in the Boise area since 2006. Matt now enjoys sharing his life of passions with his wife and their one and only son. In his free time, if Matt’s not training for marathons, he’s writing fiction and poetry, mostly about gods and fathers and good, strong drinks. “Icarus Never Flew ‘Round Here” is his second novel.
