A while back I entered into an agreement with Sony’s new eBook venture through Marty Greenberg’s group (they edit many of the DAW anthologies). This online store and their new eBook reader is a direct parallel to Apple’s iTunes store and their iPod products. They (I assume) allow you to easily download books and short stories from their site to your reader. I don’t know in reality how easy or not it is, but I imagine they spent a lot of time making it right. As far as I can tell, Sony’s reader and Amazon’s Kindle are the two new, Next Big Things with respect to readers.

In any case, I now have a story up on their site. The story is "Chasing Humanity", a story that appeared in DAW’s Man vs. Machine anthology last year. It’s a near-future story about a female reporter who’s chasing an AI, the first one to be deemed "human". Her chase, and the reason for the AI’s disappearance twenty years ago, makes her realize she’s not only been chasing the story, she’s been running away from her past.
