In August 2013, Penguin will publish my novel Necessary Errors as a paperback original and an e-book. It's available for advance order now at Indiebound, Barnes & Noble, Apple Itunes, Amazon, Books-a-Million, and Powells. You can also add it to your bookshelf at Goodreads and Library Thing.
Enjoyed and related to much of what you wrote.
I liked the Daniel quote and googled for the whole poem and found this site wch appears to have nicked your article – [URL redacted] – you might want to tell them off.
Thanks, GC! I sent a stern email to the site's host, which seems to be in France.
