Music in the Global Age 1

As you may have worked out by now, I’ve been working on a book that’s available for purchase as it’s being written. I’ve already had some lovely feedback about Music in the Digital Age (and some people have already pre-ordered the audiobook). So I started to think about whether there was anything else that would [...]

The Sound of Music in the Digital Age 0

Music in the Digital Age by Andrew Dubber Tonight, I started recording the audiobook version of Music in the Digital Age. It’s being recorded as I write the e-book, and the entire thing will be available to download on completion. Of course, in keeping with the way that I’m releasing the e-book version, you can [...]

Latest book update 0

Nearly two weeks ago, I published a book I haven’t finished writing. In fact, I’m probably only about 15% of the way through it, if I’m honest. But I’ve been experimenting with a website called Leanpub that lets you do that, and people can get the book right up front, and then receive updates as [...]

Why my book is free – and why it costs money 25

I published my ‘work in progress’ book Music in the Digital Age yesterday and had a bit of a play around with the recommended price. The minimum, however, was zero from the outset and I was quite keen that this be the case. On average, about a third of the people checking the book out [...]

My new book: a work in progress 0

I’ve been working on and off for the past few months on a book I’ve decided to call ‘Music in the Digital Age‘. My intention is to finish it this year – and because the year is going to be a busy one (not least because of my commitment to writing another book called Radio [...]

I wish I was a proper author 0

A few years ago my friend Stef and I built a website on which people could make wishes, and grant each other’s wishes. I say “we” built a website – in fact, Stef built the website and I provided moral support. We used to do this sort of thing on a semi-regular basis, and it [...]

How to make wishes that come true – for free 0

A couple of years back now (was it really that long ago?) my friend Stef and I made a website together. It was called I So Wish, and it’s not online anymore (so that link won’t actually work), but when it was active, it was a nice little community of people who would wish for [...]

Swine flu update 0

I’ve had a bit of a cold over the weekend, and so of course everyone is claiming that I have swine flu. It’s possible, I guess – but it’s far more likely to be man flu. Swine flu, of course, has already claimed as many victims as Bird flu, the Millennium Bug and the Titanic [...]

After the crunch 4

A little while back, I was invited to write a piece for a book that was released this week, called ‘After The Crunch’ – about the ways in which creativity might help Britain emerge from the current economic recession. My copy of the book arrived in the post today, but the whole thing is free [...]

Twhisky and Twavel 2

After the relatively slow start to 2009, and the lovely, restful Christmas break, I’ve started organising things for the year, and as I start booking things in, it looks like a pretty busy one. In fact… the past week or so has meant a rapid takeoff in the amount of work and travel I’ve been [...]
