I Am Still Alive

I just launched a clean little site for A Crime So Monstrous, a book by Ben Skinner, publishing (I believe) this coming spring. I’ll let Samantha Power explain Ben’s book:

Ben Skinner has taken us deep into an underworld few of us have dared to access, never mind to confront. What he finds is heartbreaking—men, women and children stripped of their identities, their freedom, and their dignity. Reported relentlessly and told grippingly, A Crime So Monstrous is the rare book that doesn’t simply expose these harms; it also explains how and why decent people inside and outside the U.S. government have averted their gaze, and it showcases those who have devoted their lives to curtailing a shockingly prevalent crime against humanity. Skinner has written an anguishing book, but also an inspiring call to action.

25% of author royalties go to Free the Slaves, so go ahead and pre-order it.

The site is the first to be powered by a hosted rails content management application I am finishing up (but more on that soon). Oh and I also shot the author photo [which you can see after the jump].
