Title: EP Soundproof 1: November 2010
Post by: eytanz on November 09, 2010, 10:32:30 AM
This is the first of our monthly magazines that will bring you the previous month’s Escape Pod stories and the best of the blog. We have been pushing to expand what Escape Pod does, adding an SF blog and distributing our stories via magazine format. We’re also becoming a pro market, and hope to keep paying our authors pro rates well into 2011 if the donations make it possible.

The rights are the same as in the audio — you are free to print, distribute, etc, these stories, as long as you don’t a) sell them, b) change them, or c) put your name on them. Otherwise, the more people that check out our stories, the better.

This month we bring to you two stories (as we’re on the cusp of stories that we own the epub rights to, and a handful of ones we do not): “Fuel” by Matthew S. Rotundo and “St. Darwin’s Spirituals” by D.K. Thompson.

We hope you enjoy this issue. We know that there are people out there who love to read but yet don’t like audio, and there are people out there who are hearing impaired. So Escape Pod is now in a Soundproof version, catering to more SF fans than ever. And please remember that we are completely donation driven, and if we want to keep paying authors the pro rates they deserve, we need your support. Please give (https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_flow&SESSION=FKdvZFcf8bVEBLa7-Fd6X3LT501aiVTHDiG1S8B0Y-Yd4yk7yOk9s6bnsYu&dispatch=5885d80a13c0db1f8e263663d3faee8dc60d77e6184470d55d73a93d5b9f6c6e), if you can.

Oh man this is COOL!

If I wasn't already donating monthly, I'd donate monthly!

Very cool!
I use Stanza on the iPhone to read ePubs and it's telling me it can't download this due to DRM -- should that be happening?

It really should not. Let me download Stanza onto mine and test things tonight, there shouldn't be any DRM on it.

Can you tell me if it will open for you in iBooks?

No, I don't have iBooks installed.

It appears to be an issue with the fonts included in the ePub, and not the ePub itself, a fixed version should go up tonight or early tomorrow.
