These Outlaw Galaxy stories are free to download, read and share. No copy protection, no hidden rootkit installers and no lawyers coming after people accusing them of stealing and "piracy." (Arr, mateys!) 

Why free downloads? Did you discover your favorite author by buying a book at random off a bookshelf? 

Or did you discover your favorites by word of mouth? By friends or parents or teachers telling you, "You have to read this book!" as they shoved a copy in your hands? By borrowing a copy from a friend or the library? 

Yeah, that's how it worked for me, too.

I want my stories to be read and enjoyed. 

So, just as Cory Doctorow, John Scalzi, Diane Duane, Charlie Stross and the folks at the Baen Free Library have done, I'm making some of my stories free to download, tips gladly accepted.

Instead of copy protection schemes and other hassles, it's: 

"Read, share, enjoy! Please throw some pocket change in the Tip Jar if you like what you read." 

Send what you want, whether it's a dime or a quarter for a short story, or fifty cents or a buck or two for a novel. Your contribution is greatly appreciated and allows me to write and share more Outlaw Galaxy stories.

(Or you could just order a printed copy of one of my books. There's no substitute for having a real printed book...and your purchase supports this humble author's endeavors.)
