About the Hosts

Christina Trevaskis

Co-host and Owner of Bookmatchmaker.com

I am a story wizard. I am able to easily pinpoint your story and character issues. I quickly assess and articulate exactly what you need to fix. I know where the story wants and needs to go in order to find its perfect audience. And I do it all while encouraging you to find and embrace your authentic voice.

I zero in on your source of writer’s block, resistance, or any other issues you may be having that doesn’t allow you to freely create the story you want to tell. NOTE: I don't actually BELIEVE in writer's block; there are YOU blocks, or your resistance.

I am a rock star at helping writers let GO of perceived perfections and embrace their messy, for that is where YOUR GENIUS resides!

Matt Cassem

Co-host

Hi, I'm Matt!

I'm a podcaster, writer, creative type who loves learning new things, meeting new people, and sharing what I know with others! I was previously the host of "Three Facts" a podcast about, well, three facts that I found interesting and wanted to share with my listeners.

I've been a podcaster, a roofer, a trade show producer, a trainer, a manager, and so much more in my short life. I can't wait for you to hear what we have to share!
