Cory Doctorow,

my friend and the guy for whom I was a lieutnenant at OpenCola

(whenever I called myself his lieutenant, we’d both break into our

impressions of Harvey Keitel from Bad Lieutenant — it wasn’t pretty), is on the cover of Toronto’s free alt-weekly, NOW magazine. If you’re in Accordion City, pick it up at your local bookstore or hipster hangout. If you’re not, you can read the story online.

Tonight at 7, there’s a book signing for his latest novel Eastern Standard Tribe at the The Merril Collection of Science Fiction, Speculation and Fantasy, located inside the Lillian H. Smith Branch of the Toronto Public Library (239 College Street West, one block east of Spadina). I’ll be there.
