    Are you making the PDF available to us too? My hard copy books are coming to me in the States, but I'll be in the UK until after Xmas. I'd still like to participate in the remix idea, but need to read the text first!

    I'm totally biased toward taking the book's remix into the medium in which it started: digital. With visuals, adventure, paths, and fascinating characters, it would be so much fun to turn it into a digital fiction piece. That's what I'd do with it anyway. I like the contest idea. Perhaps the prize should be less money-based, and more authorship based? I don't know.

    I've been using Scrivener for a while for longer projects (novels, my PhD thesis...). It is full of win. BTW, shared your project with an e-publishing class today. Generated some great discussion. Keep it up!

    Robin writes a book (and you get a copy) by Robin Sloan

    I'm writing a detective story set halfway between San Francisco and the internet. And the more people who reserve a copy, the better each one will be!
