Cross-posting this announcement for bookworms, story lovers, and nonviolent practitioners everywhere (source):
The Dandelion Insurrection is here!
We’re going to do a wild experiment, a gloriously non-commercial giveaway, a heartful bit of fun …
We’re giving away The Dandelion Insurrection ebook for free.
For 15 days from June 1-15, anyone – and everyone – can download the free epub version. You can tell your friends. You can send it to everyone on your mailing list. You can post about it on social media. We hope thousands of people will take advantage of this. We want everyone to read this book.
It’s been 13 years since I penned the words, “In a time that looms around the corner of today …” and yet the story grows more eerily familiar and relevant than ever. Not just the corporate dictatorship, but also the spirited resistance of the dandelions.
We need this story of hope and boldness … the Suburban Renaissance, the Alternet, the Cacerolazo Countdown, the essays and hidden poems and resistance messages woven into rock ‘n roll on the radio, tractor revolutions, marches and vigils, general strikes and murmurations of a movement powered by love.
As the billionaires steal power, we’re going to resist by putting People Power back into the hands of our friends, neighbors, and fellow humans.
The Dandelion Insurrection’s speculative fiction shows how ordinary people make extraordinary change using nonviolent action. If you’ve been thinking about gathering your friends and having a book discussion on this novel, now is the perfect time for it … and this is the perfect story.
I hope each of you on my mailing list will help spread the word. I’m excited to offer this free ebook as a gift in these times. Nothing would make me happier than to see my website crash because too many people are trying to download it.
“When fear is used to control us, love is how we rebel…”
