Today is the second day of the #Podapalooza virtual podcasting festival! It launched yesterday with the first hour of my new reading of my 2009 novel "Someone Comes to Town, Someone Leaves Town."

It's a novel about a guy who is obsessed with building a citywide, free wireless network - whose parents happen to be a mountain and a washing machine. Gene Wolf (RIP) called it "a glorious book unlike any book you've read."

As part of the festival, I'm doing a live Q&A today at 11AM Pacific/2PM Eastern. The tickets are pay-what-you-can, and the funds go to benefit @GiveDirectly, which makes direct cash-transfers to families in dire straits due to coronavirus.

If you want a superb, professional reading of the novel, the official audiobook is amazing, read by @bronsonAP. You can buy it anywhere audiobooks are sold (except @audible_com, who refuse to carry my work because it's DRM-free), or direct from me:
