This year’s Read an E-Book Week (March 6 – 12) is truly exceptional and I want to be a part of this event as much as I can. Apart from creating an infographic about the history of e-books, I’d like to share with you my geek fiction stories published at Smashwords – completely for free. Before proceeding to checkout just enter a relevant promotional code (shown later in this post).

The codes are valid from now on until March the 13th.

What is geek fiction? Short stories for geeks, who struggle with technology, which in many cases instead of bringing help is creating problems. So if you’ll be reading the stories on your iPad and the battery will suddenly die – that’s the world described in both Password Incorrect and Failure Confirmed.

The good thing about Smashwords is that the books are available in many formats, including epub and mobi, so you can read them practically on any device. If you’re a geek but haven’t tried reading an e-book, the time has come to do it.

And check Read an E-book Week site as well as #ebookweek tag on Twitter. Many authors are reducing prices of their e-books or offer free downloads. I’m sure you’ll find a good book for yourself.
