My most popular post (so far) this year, 5
Free E-Books Every Writer Needs, could've benefited from one more addition:

The
Problem Isn't Piracy, The Problem Is Obscurity by Cory Doctorow

This e-book gathers some of Doctorow's best essays and rants on why authors
should give their work away, stop sweating copyright, and focus on building a community
of readers.



I've long been a fan of Doctorow. Even if you don't agree with everything he says,
he's essential reading for all forward-thinking authors.

Also, if you didn't know, Writer's Digest magazine from September
2009 features an interview with Doctorow—he's even on the cover! Go
