About Metaphor Publications

Metaphor Publications is a micro-press publisher of high quality RPG fantasy fiction and art, and now, cross stitch designs. Originally, it's two principle authors were:

Alesia Matson: Author, needlework enthusiast, aspiring Buddha, RPGer, gardener, tech-geeky, herbalist, and pirate, she’s been married to Michael, her co-author, for 30 years. They have two grown sons, a goofy dogs, and one eccentric cat. Today, she writes for her own entertainment. But most of her time is spent producing Cross Stitch designs for MetPub's Grimalkin Crossing imprint. You can contact, view, and buy her designs here.

Michael Matson wrote his first book at age 12. A 24-page masterpiece hand typed onto letter paper folded in half with a construction paper cover—hand illustrated, of course—the tome was nonetheless a bestseller in the family. Since then, he’s been an airman; a commercial fisherman, the third generation to go to sea in his family;  a lobbyist; truck driver; counselor and minister; and general contractor, all life experiences that, in one way or another make their way into his art and writing. Now, having (mostly) retired from his construction firm, he's working almost exclusively on building out the World of Menelon, his art, and an illustrated novel.
