This unusual story line kept me guessing. As I read this book, I wondered what would happen to the main character, Martin. His obsessively structured life collides with the unpredictable lives of his “clients”. This creates a fast-moving and interesting plot.
Storyworthy
Whether we realize it or not, we are always telling stories. On a first date or job interview, in a sales presentation or therapy appointment, with family or friends, we are constantly narrating events and interpreting emotions and actions. In so doing, we make choices about what to emphasize and what to leave out. We frame and explain in order to amuse, rationalize, or just plain vent.
Anyone can learn to be an appealing storyteller; everyone has something story worthy to express; and, perhaps most importantly, the act of creating and telling a tale is a powerful way of understanding and enhancing one’s own life.

I Could Not Put This One Down!
— Nan Warner, Amazon Customer Review of Something Missing
Pure Gold.
“Matthew Dicks is an amazing human (no, I don’t know him personally – I’ve never even met him). This book is so good that you will feel like you just spent time with a good friend. If you want to achieve more in ANY aspect of your life – listen to what this man has to say.”
