It continues to fascinate me how someone who is willing to work hard and follow his passion can use the Internet to do something previously thought impossible.

I love Simmons and his writing. I probably never would have heard of him in the days before he could easily publish on the Web. There are an multitude of voices just like his out there that I look forward to discovering.

His Vegas columns are some of my favorites; my friends and I can relate to them on so many levels. I look forward to his column every Friday (though he has not been updating as often lately, probably due to his book signing schedule). Its one of the few columns/articles that can literally make me LoL...

Purchased his book but have not had a chance to dive into it yet :)
