After I recorded this, I remembered that I hate listening to writers read their stuff. And in my case, I definitely write for the eyes, not for the, uh, mouth. But that's okay, because there's more to be gleaned from this video...
Watch carefully:
This project successfully raised its funding goal on November 1, 2009.
ULTIMATE NINJA ALLY PACK. Get a PDF copy of the book. Join our movement to reinvent writing and publishing. (Ho hum!)
DIGITAL PACK. Get a PDF copy of the book and follow along with behind-the-scenes updates.
PHYSICAL PACK. All of the above, plus get a physical copy of the book. (The more people who choose this level or higher, the better the book is for everybody!)
SINCERITY PACK. All of the above, plus your book is signed, and it comes with a little surprise.
PATRON PACK. All of the above, plus your name (or secret code-name) is listed in the acknowledgments.
SUPER OCCULT VALUE PACK. All of the above, plus get three more copies of the book (for a total of four), so you can give one to a friend, donate one to the library, leave one in a coffee shop with a line of hexadecimal code scribbled across the title page...
INTERNATIONAL PACK. New addition! All of the above, but designed for international backers who want to help offset the cost of the trans-oceanic catapult launch. Thanks to Euan Mclaren for the idea.

I also blog at Snarkmarket (link below) with my pals Tim and Matt.
@Saheli, @Howard, @Robin: I ordered "Consider Phlebas" about an hour before reading this comment thread, from a completely unrelated Good Reads recommendation. Wicked.
I listened to it for about 15 seconds and then stopped, because I want to lovingly caress the final printed words with my eyes.
That came out sounding nasty.
I very much enjoyed the extract and I also enjoyed: http://hugin-19.lg.grailgrid.net/ :) wonderful hidden gold coins of transmedia storytelling goodness.
