mattersome

adj

1. Characterised or marked by mattering; material; important

   “Which is (as “Izzy” pointed out a while back at some length indeed) to “craft” the thing, as they say nowadays: to put it through its dramaturgical paces, goose it along through serial/incremental complications to its climax and denouement, possibly enlightening but at least enter- taining you: “holding [your] attention,” says the dictionary, between your presumably more mattersome affairs.”

   “As a not okay continually affects the person in a mattersome way, some level of botheration continues—as in the case of an unresolved issue.”

   “All lives be mattersome to him. Not a one oughtn't to be mattersome to us, same way.”
