The stats are in... During Banned Books Week a small number of real people downloaded our free EPUB/PDF offerings. Thank you to those who may enjoy the books!

But 905 downloads were by Apple & Claude bots, plus a few other crawler bots.

Well, hmmm. Fuck that shit.

We'll always give away books to good homes, just ask. We won't be doing any more free-for-alls, even for #BBW. We'd rather not feed the plagiarism slop factories.
