Also, she is one of the two Editors-in-Chief for BENT Magazine, a freelance writer, a proofreader/quality control/project coordinator for Liquid Passion and Biblo Eros, and staff for UBCon XIV, and... a couple other things.
Matan - Public Relations
Hi my name is Matthew L. Schwartz, but my friends call me Matan. I handle Public Relations for Yaoi North. When I'm not doing that (or whatever else Gryvon needs me to do) I'm a Linguist working in Applied Linguistics & Translatology with a focus on Arabic and Hebrew Translation and Interpretation.
A Linguist by trade, a Nomad by choice, you can read my writings and all about my travels at http://www.nomadmatan.net or you can email me at matan@nomadmatan.net and I'll be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
