Shome Dasgupta wrote an incredibly kind review about The Suburban Swindle for the footnote.

Pittsburgh turned out to be a far more vibrant town than I had expected. The drive there and back was kind of hell, if hell was a really, really long turnpike. The central Pa. landscape was pretty damn mountainous and beautiful. Should have brought a camera. I got exhausted driving back Thursday morning and pulled into a rest stop to take a nap in the back of my car. The backseat of my hatchback Yaris was surprisingly roomy and comfortable. I can’t remember the last time I fell asleep that quickly in a car.
Thanks so much for the folks who turned out in the cold for the Pittsburgh reading. And thanks to Savannah Schroll Guz and her husband, Michael, for being so incredibly hospitable.

Nick Antosca’s MIDNIGHT PICNIC is now available in Kindle edition.
I want to make it available for iPhones and iPod touches but I haven’t found an eBook generating software that produces a good-looking product. (Amazon makes it pretty easy to format books on their site for Kindle, which is helpful.) Anyone have any advice for producing eBooks to sell on iPods?
