Cory’s new book

billso — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 01:41:13 +0000

Little Brother author Cory Doctorow has a new book of short stories called With a Little Help – and as usual, he’s trying something different with his business model. It will be available in multiple formats with multiple prices – from free e-books and audiobooks to custom-bound $250 volumes.

If you want an affordable bound copy, buy one on Lulu.com for around US$16. That copy might have small advertisements included in the book, however.

See this article called Doctorow’s Project: With a Little Help and this article on Cory’s blog called WITH A LITTLE HELP, my DIY publishing experiment for more information.
