  1. “MultiReal” Miscellany  •  July 22, 2008
    Life moves fast, and this "MultiReal" promotion stuff is zipping by like an F-16. Here's a passel of news about book stuff, which I'm just going to lump here behind bullet points for lack of any better idea.
  2. The Jump 225 Jumbo Mega-Bonanza Summer Giveaway, Week 4  •  July 21, 2008
    This week's contest: who would win a deathmatch smackdown fight, Gandalf or Obi-Wan Kenobi, and why? (Or better yet, how?)

  5. On Self-Promotion  •  June 19, 2008
    I'm seeing a lot of people picking on Cory Doctorow for being a self-promotional whore, and it's irritating the piss out of me. These complainers need to understand that the twentieth century paradigm of advertising and promotion where the content sits on one side of the page, and the advertisements sit on the other side of the page, and there's a nice clear line separating the two, is dead.

    Last night I had the privilege of attending a reading and interview of renowned science fiction author Paul Levinson in support of his book "The Plot to Save Socrates" on Second Life. And after attending Paul's Second Life event, I can now officially say I don't get it.
  10. A Guide to Ethical Self-Promotion  •  August 17, 2007
    I’ve recently become aware of a fantasy author named Robert Stanek. Many of you reading this have probably already heard of him, but I’m a little behind the curve.
