Rstevens, creator of the wonderful webcomic Diesel Sweeties, sez, "I finally got off my ass and finished my 10 volme set of CC-ebooks. Opted out of Wowio or any of those stinky services that are ad-supported because not all countries can sign up. Just some weekend reading for the blogosphere!"

Ten volumes of Diesel Sweeties! w00t! Link (Thanks, R!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    What kind of agreement does Wowio make you sign that he can’t distribute stuff through them, and on his own? Even though they have a limit to what you can download (up to 3 a day, up to 30 a month), and despite the ads, and not being available worldwide, I wouldn’t call them “stinky”. But if they have some kind of sole distribution clause, then sure, forget about it.

    Bacon-y goodness. Stevens is brilliant, consistent and considerate. Who gets pissy over free stuff?

  • El Mariachi

    Cool! Now if only Diesel Sweeties were ever funny…

    @#1: The point of Creative Commons is to be free, not good! Don’t you know that the world will be fixed forever by a massive influx of free, shitty content???
