How to Critique a Friend's Work
A WINNER HAS BEEN SELECTED!! A fittingly literary comic, as this is your last chance to win a signed copy of my book “Curse of the Masking-Tape Mummy.”
All you have to do is leave a comment on Monday's comic (How to Disagree Like Civilized Gentlemen). The winner will be selected at random on Thursday morning (Feb 23rd). Again, I will ask a question that you can, but are not obligated to, answer.
The question: How much would you pay for a digital, DRM-free version of one of my books?
Good luck, and thanks for helping to make this contest the success it has been!

Steampunk zombies:
TRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAINS.
Thompson is the obvious choice for vampire... Adams really only works as a ghost or zombie.
HST, just so that the book could be titled Vampire Hunter.
Crichton totally wrote mysteries. Rising Sun, for one.
I see everyone agrees with me about Hunter S. Thompson being self-evidently a better vampire.
"For they knew, I was half-mad on PCP and eager to fill my empty Wild Turkey jug with enough fresh blood ro make the last leg of the trip into Washington and apply for White House press credentials... nothing like a big hit of red corpuscles to give a man the right lift for a rush into politics." - Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72"
Regarding digital copy of book, if it is something easy to look at on an iPad, then I would pay $10. If it's a flash drive containing HTML and GIFs, then I probably would not buy it.
I'd pay full price for each book. The ability to read your books on a tablet would be very helpful - I don't buy physical books anymore because they get lost/damaged/they aren't around when I want to read them. DRM or not isn't important to me.
Douglas Adams vampire for the win!
