Like many artists, I’ve seen my sales figures chipped away as the print market shrinks due, in no small part, to rampant online piracy. I tried to count the number of pirate sites that had my work available for free download, but when I hit 145, I was too depressed to go on. Pirates and impecunious fans inform me that pirating my work is great publicity, for piracy isn’t nearly as dangerous to an artist as obscurity.
