I have this idea, and I would like your opinion. I’ve been reading your blog and you seem very passionate to the idea of openness and free books, obviously. I’m writing a novel and I want to release it for free. For a couple reasons, to not do so seems strikingly dissident with its content, and because I think it’s an incredibly interesting experiment. I can see multiple problems in this, but the biggest thing I’m worried about is how do you suggest that it’s good content while still making it free? (I’m sure you are already wary of this. My uncle tells this story, he worked in a skate shop, they charged 7 bucks for a sharpen, but when they raised the price to 22 they tripled their business, as the premier sharpeners in town. I also think it has other ideas, the physical, malleable copy of a book is something you commit to buy. ‘Well since I bought this book I should probably read it’). Convincing people to read the book has to consider, incredibly, ease of access. So I’ve been thinking of starting my own website, or a simple WordPress blog, but ideally I would not like to host it, an option that occurred to me after seeing sites like yours. With this new wave of ebooks, a route I considered, there are already many suggestions on building an online presence yadda yadda, but I think ideas can do more.

Anyways, there are many other considerations, editing, and the aesthetics of the online page. I’m curious what you think.
