Matt O'Connor

Matt O'Connor is the children's pen-name of M.J. O'Connor.

Matt's life has been full of adventure from the start. He lived in over 10 homes across four areas of Australia before he hit high school. Once finished there he continued to move around traveling and living in the United Kingdom, Europe and America. Growing up he played football (soccer) and did Taekwondo in which he fought at every level from club to international.

Matt also had a lot of different jobs, but one thing that stuck with him was his writing. Now he lives with his wife and two children who teach him daily that not all adventures take place far away.
