Poking at Dark Underbellies
S. Naoyuki Matsuba is a writer of suspense/thrillers whose characters do more than dip their toes into dark, murky ponds of society. Some indulge in the BDSM lifestyle.

All are haunted by the past and driven to reach their goals no matter the cost to them or others.


A writer for over four decades, S. Naoyuki Matsuba has pursued his lifetime dream of becoming a writer of fiction for the last ten years. His Japanese heritage as well as his background in English Literature and martial arts are important influences in his writing. With experiences in politics, gender, BDSM, AI, augmented reality, and food influence his stories to create a unique and engaging perspective.
