[Support C4SS by supporting me: For every $2 in additional pledges, I will reduce my monthly pay for C4SS writing by $1, as a way of helping C4SS revenues meet expenses (they currently cover only about half our budget). So half of everything you pledge to me is also a donation to C4SS.]

I write commentary and research papers at Center for a Stateless Society, a left-wing market anarchist think tank. I'm also the author of four published books (Studies in Mutualist Political Economy, Organization Theory: A Libertarian Perspective, Homebrew Industrial Revolution: A Low-Overhead Manifesto) and Desktop Regulatory State.

So Desktop Regulatory State is now in print, and I've begun my next book project, tentatively titled Exodus: General Idea of the Revolution in the 21st Century (regularly updated online draft here).

As before, everyone supporting me at the $25 level will get a signed copy of the book when it comes out.

I get about half my income from freelance writing, and half working as a hospital orderly. In Summer 2015 I moved out to a rural parcel of land in Winslow, AR. Given the 30-mile commute to my job and the condition of my 28-year old pickup, my wage labor situation is precarious enough that I could be stuck living entirely off my writing income and the food I can grow here at any time without notice. So I'd like to make enough writing to live off of if the necessity arises.

If you enjoy my writing and think it's worth supporting, and can afford to do so, I would be very grateful for any amount of money you care to donate on a monthly basis. In return I will be able to pay my bills and keep on writing, and hopefully be able to finish my next book sometime before the end (and preferably by the middle) of next year.
