Matthew Martin Wolthoff lives in McAllen, Texas with his wife Lucy Ann, and three children Hunter Ann, McCoy Martin, and Kerr Dunkin.  He grew up in a military family, living all over the world until finding home in South Texas, where he went to high school in San Antonio.  His parents instilled a passion for reading and writing in him early in life that grows stronger every day.  An Avid outdoorsman, he finds his inspiration-and peace of mind-in the shallow waters of the Laguna Madre and the wilderness of the South Texas brush country. His first West Texas pilgrimage was in 2010. It was a life changing event.
