Posted on February 02, 2012

Speech to Libertarian Party meeting
Posted on January 21, 2012Here’s a speech I gave on patents to the Roanoke Valley Libertarians. It’s in three parts, and while the audio isn’t great, I was pretty please with the way that it went.
Pirate Nation in Russian!
Posted on January 05, 2012
Last month, I heard from a Russian publisher who was interested in Pirate Nation. Since then, I have received and accepted an offer for the Russian rights, and the contract has been signed and sent off.
The initial run will be 3,000 hard copy books, and they will make an ebook available in Russian as well.
Great news for Pirate Nation. Hopefully Russian readers will find the topic germane and timely. Russia is such an interesting copyright climate. I’ll be posting with any other news as this develops. In particular, the publisher’s name. I certainly can’t read Russian, but I can’t wait to get a copy.
Pirate Nation audio book coming soon!
