Introduction	Thanks for joining me today. I'm Matt Herbert. All my life I have wanted to write and make films. In 1991, while in my last year studying Television and Sound Production, I sustained a closed-head brain injury in a car accident. I had to learn to walk again. This event changed me forever; it derailed me, but it didn’t take me. Therefore, I determined I must still be here for some purpose. Since then I’ve done time in a greater number than I’m willing to admit of unrewarding sales and service missteps. A good friend told me my working life was that of a prototypical Generation X-er. I took it as a compliment. But all the while I’ve had one lifelong desire: to write and touch people like you with my writing. I don’t have a manifesto as such, I don’t think I know the answers and I definitely don’t want to tell you what to do or think. I started writing this blog to help me make sense of my life; married to a wonderful wife for ten years, and proud father to two daughters under the age of five, I still want more. I hope you will be entertained, informed, and maybe even inspired by my words.
