Salon serializes Doctorow novella

Today, Salon.com unveiled the first of 10 installments of Cory Doctorow’s new novella, Themepunks. Born and raised in Toronto, Doctorow, an acclaimed science fiction writer, has made all of his books available for free download, saying on his website that “the increased scope and duration of copyright are strangling free expression, privacy and innovation, and … that enabling my fans to trade my words makes me more money.”
