After the earlier-in-the-year (or was it late last year?) fracas with amazon retroactively changing their DRM policies to essentially vendor-lock their libraries to devices running their e-Reader application (or, indeed, their own line of E-Readers), I’ve been more than a little peeved with them. I’ve long held the belief that piracy costs creators a lot less than their respective industries would have you believe - if someone felt the need to steal my book, they probably were never going to pay for it anyway. For that reason, I’m really proud to announce that I’ve gone ahead and re-listed them in DRM-Free EPUB format through Rakuten Kobo. This cross-listing allows me to bring the EPUB format of the book to you without any imposed DRM, which allows you to lend it out to your friends. It’s also allowed me to opt in to their OverDrive platform, meaning that your local public library card probably grants you free access to read the book through your library, though of course that’s going to vary from place to place. And, of course, you can then read them on any device you like.
This will likely be the practice going forward, at least for anything self-published I put out; published work is obviously less mine to coordinate the release pattern through. And don’t worry - you can still get your print copies in the usual places. I’ve updated the writing page as well as https://www.sanityline.net with the new shop links.
