After a few weeks of planning, The Publishing Spot alumni Nick Mamatas just released a copy of his cult novel, Move Under Ground, with a Creative Commons (CC) license. You can now download a free copy of his novel that crosses the creeping horrors of novelist H.P. Lovecraft with a beatnik hero.
CC has a new generation of artists, programmers, and musicians to publish content in a unique way--making it legal for your fans to play with content that you produced.
The CC license prevents anybody from profiting from your work of art, while allowing you to dictate how your fans can play with your content. It's all about community and interactivity, an alternative to old media copyright laws.
"Below as HTML and also available as a PDF is my 2004 novel Move Under Ground. I decided to release it under a Creative Commons license for a number of reasons. The first is simply that I wish my novel to be more widely read. The second is that I am currently a student at Western Connecticut University's MFA program in Professional Writing, and this site is a project for its class on publishing technologies."
