[publishing] Giving It Away | Cory Doctorow - 0 views

  • I've been giving away my books ever since my first novel came out, and boy has it ever made me a bunch of money.
  • Most people who download the book don't end up buying it, but they wouldn’t have bought it in any event, so I haven’t lost any sales, I’ve just won an audience
