Respectfully… is a non-fiction collection of letters on life, growth, and the lessons we learn along the way, drawn from real experience. Written by Matthew Gene, the book explores parenting, loss, responsibility, and the quiet decisions that shape a life over time.

This book is intended for readers who appreciate honest, reflective non-fiction. It is for those moving through change, rebuilding after setbacks, or pausing to consider where life has taken them. The writing is direct and unembellished, allowing meaning to emerge naturally rather than forcing conclusions.

Respectfully… is not about having the answers. It’s about paying attention—honoring what was, understanding what is, and moving forward with clarity and intention.

 

It's still in the works, with an expected release date in the spring of 2026.​
