Congrats, Jim!  I'm looking forward to it.  Right now I have Kira reading Asimov's History of Biology.

Good choice of material, Kat! I read so much Issac Asimov when I was a kid (almost all non-fiction), that I thanked him and Carl Sagan in the preface.

Writing is complete, and I am in the final stages of editing. I hope to have it out in a few days.  ;D

I also just added the second chapter for free viewing on the website, in both .html and .pdf formats. The .pdf version looks just like it will in the book.

Hi folks!

I've been working nearly every day for a year now on the book, and it is finally finished!  ;D

The book is available in paper format for $17.95 on the website, and an electronic version is available for about $10.

I hope everyone enjoys!

Great idea, Dreepa! However, the FSP book page is not yet set up with my book on there (although it would be fine with me if it were)......

I believe the FSP would get its affiliate cut if someone bought it through this link.

Although.... if you sell directly through your website? you probably get a bigger cut so we should mention that!!? ;D

No, I don't make as much if someone goes through Amazon rather than through the Lulu link on my site, but I think I make the same thing if someone goes through Amazon through the FSP-refered link above as through my normal Amazon link, and I would rather have the FSP get some cash than to have Amazon keep it all.

Wow! What a HORRIBLE sentence! :D

What the Hell good is having an author for a friend if you don't get free books? ;D

When I publish my first book, (probably available at PORNBOOKS.com) I'll give my friends copies for donations to the LSF ;)

Right now I can't afford to give away lots of free copies, if I could, rest assured you'd alll be getting one in celebration :D

Chapter 2 was free.   8)

It's a history book written by a libertarian.  History doesn't get much better than that.  ;)

Just placed my order. I'm giving it to my Dad after I read it.
