I’m on Readercon’s Guest list.

Granted, it’s a big list. 😀 But they link my author website and everything!

LoudTwitter seems to have f*sked up today and never posted yesterday’s Tweets, so here they are.

Kindle owners/haters have have been using tags to harass Amazon & mount “protests” for over a year now–my own books have anti-Kindle tags
