Welcome to the quirky and (sometimes) quixotic Internet home of Matt Villano — writer, editor, whale-worshipper and all-around lovable weirdo.

Here you can learn more about me and the things I like about life. You also can check out my resume, meet my cat, see my multimedia experience and peruse a growing library of stuff I've written over the years. Stick around! Click away! Most importantly, enjoy.

NEW! I have been contracted to review hotels in California Wine Country for the renowned travel Web site, Gayot.com. I also am updating all 128 of the site's existing Wine Country hotel reviews. Stay tuned for more news.
