Editorial Review

I occasionally self-indulge and google my name to see what comes up, just for fun really. Partly, I like to keep tabs on those people out there who share my name (the Matt Simmons Project, forthcoming), and partly I like to see if anything other than my website comes up. Usually not.

Not too long ago, however, I was suprised to find that I've been quoted! I wrote a review of a kayaking guide and Amazon's page for the book quotes from my article. Fun. Check it out here.

I guess someday I'll get used to this kind of thing; I'll consider it blase no doubt. But for now, the novelty's fresh and exciting, and I still get a kick out of it. Jo once said to me, "I wonder if all famous writers used to get excited about their early writing?" Maybe it's just me... Whichever it is, I don't care, I'm having fun.
