As the title implies, the piece is about my novel Makers. It's a smart piece of work, and I'm both tickled and honored.

Chris Davis made a smart 1 minute video inspired by Makers, which provides visual accompaniment to Landon Kettlewell's opening speech in the novel.

Jeff Clark sez, "I've created a graphic from the text of 'Makers' that shows the distribution of the various proper nouns in your work. It seems to do a pretty good job of communicating the ebb and flow of the various characters throughout the book."

This works amazingly well -- I've never seen an automated text analysis that was so revealing of the emotional and plot elements of a book!

Ben O’Steen got his maker on by printing out the entire text of Makers on a cash-register receipt, using a till printer. Awesome.
