Hazard Yet Forward — New Genre Fiction Charity Anthology

I'm proud of the alumni, students, and faculty in Seton Hill U's Writing Popular Fiction graduate program for putting this new book together, with profits going to assist Donna Munro, a great writer and fellow member of our community who shocked us all by being diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year. The kindle edition of the book was just released today on amazon for just $9.99. Totally worth it, given that it's got over 700 pages of genre stories in it. I wrote one them (first appearance of my story "The Scraper") as well as the introduction. There are…

More kindle fetishism posted to my flickr page. #iphoneography #ebook

I've continued to play with photos of my Amazon Kindle over the 4th of July weekend. There's 16 shots up right now; I'm aiming for about twenty, maybe twenty-five, or so.  I'm no photographer, but it's fun to learn these techniques by messing around.  Drop by the set on my flickr account to see them all, and please let me know what you think!

Kindle Experiments

I've begun another series of weird photos -- "Kindle Experiments" -- over on my flickr gallery. Just having fun messing around with shots of my amazon kindle. Let me know what you think. Plans are afoot with publishers of my backlist to produce ebook versions of my novels and collections in the year to come. Keep an eye on my Amazon profile if you're looking for something new for your kindle, nook, kanookiedindle, et cetera.

Over on my flickr gallery, I've started posting a new series of experimental photos with my amazon kindle e-book reader.  Above is a treatment of the Emily Dickinson screensaver... will be posting more directly on flickr. And here's a really interesting discussion by Jason Gignac, who points out some problems inherent to the Dickinson portrait in itself.

Kindle2 Opens the Ebook Watershed: The Time Has Come

It's time to go ebook, if you haven't already. Today amazon.com releases their next generation Kindle2 ebook reading device, which is now able to pull information out of the (cell phone) wireless networks internationally...and you don't have to subscribe to a cell phone service to do so.  This means that the medium has gone totally global; you can read an ebook anywhere -- and update/sync/buy anywhere, too.  So what? This means that publishers everywhere will now see a new way to reach millions of readers, so they're all going to push these electronic formats (if they haven't already). Readers like…
