When it was done, the director - audiobook legend #GabrielleDeCuir - sat me down and said, "Look, I've never said this to an author before, but I think *you* should read *The Lost Cause*. I don't direct anyone anymore except Wil Wheaton and #LeVarBurton, but I'd direct *you* on this.."
I was immensely flattered - and very nervous. Reading *The Internet Con* was one thing - the book is built around the speeches I've been giving for 20 years and I knew I could sell those lines.
