I am the real life inspiration of the character Ghost from the award winning book, Ghost by @jasonreynolds83 . As I’ve traveled throughout the country, I have enjoyed meeting all the Ghost fans and I look forward to meeting you in the future!

To all of the many super heroes I have met on this journey, my goal has always been to encourage you to never give up. Hug your parents. Stay positive and do better than what you are seeing right now. CHANGE THE WORLD. There is no age restriction on that.

Grabbing some coffee this morning and the barista had the best attitude and told me my beard was “epic”. That bit of kindnesses sent my entire day in an upwards trajection. Everyone continue to shine light in this world. We will win in the end. 😁

It felt so great to see my superhero’s again! This is a very difficult time for everyone and having a small sliver of normalcy did my heart good. So thankful for this opportunity.

My 2 year old got mad with me earlier because I threw away his imaginary trash. Now he’s upset at my wife because she didn’t take him to his imaginary doughnut store. Clearly we are doing well today. 🤪

Before retiring for the evening my 2 year old son instructed me to clean up his toys before I went to bed... 😂🤦🏾‍♂️

Just popped on Twitter for the first time in a while and I see that Alexa the robot has her own page and is tweeting....aight ima head out 👋🏾 2020 is too much 😂

We partnered w/@FergFlorSchools to present @MattCarterTalks, the real-life inspiration for the book GHOST. A student said, "Dear Mr. Carter, I remember how you talked about being a hero, & how our past makes us stronger. Something I will always remember.” (📷 @jenniferalin)

If you haven’t gotten @MattCarterTalks to your school or organization to speak, do it now! @MattCarterTalks talk is so motivational and @DonelleCarter is awesome to work with. She will have you set up in no time!

I don’t know why this is making me so happy but check out the national weather radar right now. The entire United States is cloud free. Everyone is experiencing a Sunny day right now. That’s dope 😊

“Superheroes are not only superheroes for saving themselves.” @MattCarterTalks “We are all superheroes, our stories are our powers.” @TremontLions #serveleadsucceed

So well done. Beautiful read, please take a moment to check this out.

Last session of the day approaching. I’m about to speak with teenagers on a Saturday afternoon in the middle of a snow storm. I can’t even begin to express how impressed I am by these young superheroes. Our future looks bright.

"As with many of @MetroTheater Company’s productions, Ghost offers invaluable lessons for children while simultaneously entertaining them as well as adults in the room." -Mark Bretz, @LadueNews Read more:

We’re so happy to have @MattCarterTalks in STL speaking about his life experiences! Matthew is the real-life inspiration for the best-selling book GHOST by @JasonReynolds83.

Amazing first day in St. Louis! Couldn’t have asked for a warmer welcome. Literally it was 60 degrees today! Taking all the credit for bringing the warm weather here 😁. 4 schools downs and 4 more to go. Life is…
