When my husband and I went to York several years ago, we went on a city tour. At one point, the guide said, "A Yorkshireman is a Scotsman, stripped of his generosity," and I knew immediately which of my ancestors' genes I had inherited. But I'm not a complete miser. I do spend money -- occasionally. For instance, I just bought Feedback, by Robison Wells, for full price, and two other books as well! And I suppose sheer guilt will goad me into buying at least a few full-price books from Baen. But until then, I'm glad of the opportunity to try out new books for free and maybe find some new favourite authors.
I've recently discovered Planet Baen, a game developed by Baen Books, where you can earn free ebooks by playing! Once I heard the words "free" and "books," I immediately ran over to check it out. It's not difficult at all, and I've already earned three ebooks just by investing a few minutes three or four times each day.
