Biography
I do most stuff on the web - bio here - Dave's Smashwords Bio Page - http://www.rudemacedon.ca/dlp/dlp-smashwords-bio-2016.html
As you will see, most of my books are 'free', as in you can set your own price. What I hope is, that you feel free to take a free download - but if you then like the book, come back and 'buy' a second one, paying whatever you like and, more importantly, tell your friends about all of this. This is not just something I am doing to try to make a living as an author, as you will see from the Democratic Revolution Handbook, and is implicit in Green Island, I really want to try to help make our society a better place, to get much more involved in battling the capitalist new world order feudalism they are building around us - but to do that, I need money. Quite a bit. I'm not big on charity, but if a lot of people buy the books, even at a couple of bucks a shot, I might be able to get back to Canada, and start on the Great Green Island Road Show and Democracy Chatauqua - read more here, if you're interested - http://www.rudemacedon.ca/GGIRS.html
