Interview on P2PNet.net

I did an interview with P2Pnet.net about the release of Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom that came out great:

"Word-of-mouth is the only consistently successful means for turning first novels by relative unknowns into successes," Cory told p2pnet.net. "Books like Secrets of Ya-Ya Sisterhood became bestsellers through being passed hand to hand by passionate believers in the text. My book attempts to articulate the unspoken motivation behind the Free Software movement, the Web, and all the tech-for-tech's-sake projects that my tribe (which is both sizeable and growing) spends its leisure hours contributing to.

"This tribe is smeared across cyberspace, and rarely meets face-to-face - its hand-to-hand mechanisms are email, p2p, the Web, IRC. Making my book amenable to travel by these mechanisms ensures that if it catches the imagination and passion of my readers, they'll have the same ability that Ya-Ya Sisterhood's supporters had."
