Down and Out podcast concludes

Mark Forman is the podcaster who's been serializing my novel Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom read aloud, one chapter at a time, with backing from great, Creative Commons-licensed music. Today he concluded the reading with chapters nine and ten in one installment. Now he's embarked upon his next project, reading Lessig's magnificent Free Culture.

(Thanks, Mark!)

I'm currently attending a Science Fiction LIT class in St. Louis, MO. We are reading Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom.:0)

I'm wondering if the Sci-Fi guy, Cory D. would mind sending me an email noting his personal thoughts on Neal Stephenson's, The Diamond Age and possibly Ray Bradbury's, Fahrenheit 451. I would like to share your thoughts with my class.

Sincerely,

…Cory Doctorow–cultural critic, Disneyphile, and ultimate Early Adopter–uses language with the reckless confidence of the Beat poets. Yet behind the dazzling prose and vibrant characters lie ideas we should all pay heed to. The future rushes on like a plummeting roller coaster, and it’s hard to see where we’re going. But at least with this book Doctorow has given us a map of the park.
