My last nationally bestselling novel was "The Bezzle," an ice-cold revenge story of high-tech finance crime starring the forensic accountant Martin Hench.

My ebooks and audiobooks (from Tor Books, Head of Zeus, McSweeneys, Beacon, Verso and others) are for sale all over the net, but I sell 'em too, and when you buy 'em from me, I earn twice as much and you get books with no DRM and no license "agreements."

in reply to Cory Doctorow • • •Ooooh, didn't realize it was a conference! I guess the name makes more sense now! (There have been multiple attempts to tear down that mall and build various other things - baseball park, affordable housing, arcology…)
If I'm re-employed by then, I'll definitely attend the full conference. From the B&N page, it sounds like (if I'm still unemployed) I can attend just the book signing without conference attendance?
