Beyond The Literary-Industrial Complex: Using The Amazon Kindle And Other New Technologies To Unleash An Indie Movement Of Readers & Writers (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780971577893)

#1 bestselling author Stephen Windwalker writes the indieKindle blog and is the author of several books and numerous short-form pieces of fiction and nonfiction, some under his real name. He has worked as a community organizer, fruit picker, bean counter, sports writer, dishwasher, publishing industry executive, elected official, sandwich maker, and bookseller, among other things. Windwalker attended and eventually graduated from Harvard College with the help of a full scholarship. While an undergraduate he served as fiction editor of the Harvard Advocate and studied with Monroe Engel, Kurt Vonnegut Jr., Robert Lowell, and Carter Wilson. He lives near Boston and is astonished by the fact that he is the author of the #1 bestselling title in the Amazon Kindle store. He is currently at various stages of anxiety and accomplishment with four works in progress: a novel (of course), a book about how to make the most of the Kindle's features, a book that he is writing with his son Danny under the working title Do the Math, Dude: A Kids' Guide to Baseball by the Numbers, and another impossible effort to merge primer and polemic, Reclaiming Our American Dreams in the Age of Obama.
