The authors were people like Fred Saberhagen, Timothy Zahn, and David Drake. --Mike Anent free samples of books, back in 1984 I was posting free chapters from new science fiction novels online.

Banks Sat, 27 Oct 2007 17:53:57 +0000 http://www.teleread.org/blog/?p=7355#comment-594870 Thank you for sharing the chapter, David. As Chris Anderson points out, it's an intteresting experiment in the effectiveness of free samples in marketing a book, and user-generated content. (I should note here that publisher Joe Wikert is equally responsible for the experiment.) In terms of logistics, it is certainly more convenient to buy the book than to go around collecting chapters--and not all interviewees are posting their chapters. More importantly, as diverse a group as the interviewees are, a strong collective thxme on blogging success emerges from the combined chapters. That is far more accessible with the content in one unit. I hope enough people are interested by the samples to pick up the book at a bookstore or library. Lest I forget: there are some fun illustrations in the book, too. --Mike http://mikebanks.blogspot.com Thank you for sharing the chapter, David.
