After her 17-year old son Matthew was fatally injured in a vehicle crash in 1980, Suzanne (Suzy) Ward contacted mediums for news of him, and all of them told her that when the time was right, she would communicate with him directly.
It was early in 1994 when Suzy and Matthew connected telepathically. During the first weeks they talked about his life in Earth's spirit world, and then he started introducing members of several civilizations that are spiritually, intellectually and technologically far advanced from our own.
Matthew told his mother that her profession as journal editor was part of their family's pre-birth agreement, the experience she needed to organize the transmissions she was receiving from him and many other extraterrestrial souls. He said her primary lifetime mission was to publish their information about this unprecedented era in the universe as Earth ascends into her Golden Age of planetary peace and life in harmony with Nature.
In 1997, Suzy started receiving lengthy messages from God. That is when she learned that He, not the Council of Nirvana, had been her source of guidance in book content selection. God also told her which of their many subsequent talks He wanted to be included in the books.
After a few years of receiving rejections or no response from all the publishers she contacted, Suzy hired an on-line service. The pages fell out of the books they produced. Next she encountered a person who represented himself as a publisher; the contract he sent stated that he was co-author, retained rights to the books and she could purchase them from him.
She formed Matthew Books in 2001, but misfortunes continued when she naively paid a recommended printer in advance for 10,000 books. The printer delivered only 364 copies and stopped answering phone calls and replying to emails. The law suit cost half the amount of the settlement.
Thanks to her oldest son's financing, by the end of 2003, Matthew Books had published "Matthew, Tell Me about Heaven," "Revelations for a New Era," "Illuminations for a New Era" and "Voices of the Universe."
English editions have sold in 50 countries and "Heaven" has been translated into 11 other languages. "Revelations," "Illuminations" and "Voices," which have been published in revised editions with updated information, also have been published in foreign languages.
"Earth's Golden Age-Life beyond 2012" and Suzy's book, "Amusing to Profound-My Conversations with Animals I and II," were published in 2012.
Until family circumstances required all of her time, Suzy accepted speaking engagements, was a teleconference panelist and guest on numerous on-line radio shows, had her own program on BBS, and was one of three contributors to "And Then God Said... Then I Said... Then He Said."
Matthew's monthly messages are distributed to more than 8000 subscribers, 150 messages are posted on www.matthewbooks.com, and translations into 23 other languages are on ww.galacticchannelings.com.
With her family of adopted dogs, Suzy lives in a rural area near Vancouver, Washington. Her daughter, two sons and five grandchildren live in Latin America.
