Cory in San Francisco tonight and tomorrow

I'm still revving up my tour for Homeland, the sequel to Little Brother, and tonight I'll be at Booksmith in San Francisco. I'm lucky enough to get two days in SFO and tomorrow I'll be at Borderlands, before I head to Salt Lake City for an appearance at The Leonardo on Saturday. From there, it's off to Tempe, AZ for a gig at Changing Hands on Sunday, and then off to many more cities (here's the list). Last night's event in Portland at the Beaverton Powell's was amazing, with more than a hundred lovely folks in attendance, a lively Q&A and the swell atmosphere of one of the world's great bookstores.

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.

Anyone know when homeland is released in the UK?
- Cory Doctorow
  
  It’ll be later this spring. I don’t like the scheduling delay, but it was unavoidable — changed UK publishers.

    That kinda sucks, but it’s good to know that it’s coming, rather than being ignored by my local bookshop.
    
    By the way Cory, I just wanted to say I read “The Penalty Kick” recently on my OU course. It’ll be interesting to see how much of the tech you described in that story ends up appearing and how soon

I wish I was in SF. Or somewhere warmer than here.

My copy was auto-delivered by Kindle this week. I’m no fan of Kindle’s DRM scheme, but I do have to admit I love waking up to a new book…
- Cory Doctorow
  
  No fear! All Tor ebooks are DRM-free!

    I just basically was the straight man for your pitch, wasn’t I? Not that I mind…

San Franciscky? So did you drove over or did you flew?

SF = Food. House Of Nanking, Powell’s Soul Food, Marin Joe’s. *sigh*

Was great to see you in Portland! I really enjoyed the presentation, lots of good points on the affects of legislation on technology and how much they effect our current and future lives.

  Thank you, Kyle! Great to see you too.
