Nice to know that interview is still getting some plays. My opinion about giving a whole novel away free has changed since then. I recall being quite hesitant, dispite quoting success stories like Scott Sigler. Now I think the man's a marketing genious. I concur with your experience. My novel is selling just as well as before I gave it away. Hi, Kristian.

I agree with the free release as a promo item. I am an independent musician and recently released my new album as a free download and have not seen mp3/CD sales fall off as a result. Granted, i wasn't burning up the charts before exactly, so i could still be lurking in the shadow of the margin of error. I heard your interview on the Writing Show today ( back-issue obviously).
