this Thursday Aug 3! 7 pm! Book Soup! A reading of BEGIN TRANSMISSION: THE TRANS ALLEGORIES OF THE MATRIX! and if you have Q's I have A's! Me! YOU? I sure hope so!

I LOOOOVE this shot of me that Patrick Malone got at the WGA sci-fi writers picket at Universal last Monday.

my book has already popped up on pirate sites with almost a thousand downloads. I don't even know if I've sold a thousand copies. it's extra awful because THE SOCIAL MEDIA THREADS!THE BOOK IS BASED ON! ARE STILL UP! AND FREEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!😡😡😡 not only does this hurt authors, amazon often decides to stop carrying pirated books! and yes they're the evil empire but they're sadly still vital to a book's success. YOU COULD KILL THE BOOK SO THANKS FOR EVERYTHING ASSHOLES
