The Shadow Publications Interview!

Yes, you read that right, Paul E. Cooley of Shadow Publications, author of the Fiends Collection, has interviewed me.

Now, if you have never heard a podcast where Mr. Cooley and me are on together then you should be warned. Yes, you should be. What’s the warning? JEEZ! You want me to do everything for you? Golly!

In all seriousness, you should be warned.

Okay, I’ll stop. WARNED! Now I’ll stop.

Great interview, great time and great guy. Check out Mr. Cooley’s info at shadowpublications.com

Enjoy!

The Americans Episode 3!

Welcome back, y’all!

So, this week’s episode is short. Way shorter than you will be happy with, but it’s better than nothing. Do not argue with me! It’s better than nothing!

Why is it so short? Well, for one thing, I have been busy trying to get ready for the March 1st DEAD MECH Kindle chart rush! And the other reason is because I HAVE BEEN GETTING READY FOR THE DEAD MECH KINDLE CHART RUSH!

SORRY I YELLED. OH, WAIT I’M STILL YELLING. HOLD ON… There we go, I’ve calmed down

This Kindle chart rush has become a little bigger than just me. As far as I can tell no one has done a kindle chart rush before. There are a lot of writers and podcasters, and podcasting writers (or writing podcasters), that are going to be looking closely to see how this turns out.

SO LET’S ROCK THIS RUSH!

Oops, I yelled again. Sorry.

Anyhoo, I won’t take up any more time here, just be sure you mark your calendars for March 1st and buy DEAD MECH on Kindle! This is going to be awesome!

Cheers!

The Mother Load!

I have some exciting news zombie and horror fans!

THE MOTHER LOAD IS HERE!

James Melzer, author of the forthcoming Escape: The Zombie Chronicles Book 1, has one sweeeeeet promotion going on!

What is said promotion?

Well here’s the skinny:

1. The Mother Load is an eBook collection of never-before published stories from six great authors including Mur Lafferty, S.G. Browne, David Moody, Wayne Simmons, Matt Wallace, and Jeremy C. Shipp.

2. The only way folks can get their hands on this eBook collection is by preordering Escape at any of the following online retailers: Amazon (Print Edition), Amazon (Kindle Edition), Amazon UK, Amazon Canada, Borders.com, and Indigo Canada.

3. People must forward their purchase receipt to EscapeNovel@Gmail.com. They in turn will receive a .zip file that contains The Mother Load anthology in .mobi, .epub and PDF formats for their eReaders within 24 hours.

4. The anthology also contains an excerpt of Escape so folks know what they have to look forward to.

5. Folks can learn more about Escape by visiting the link on Mr. Melzer’s website.

That’s it folks! Quite exciting!

I have read some of these stories and this is quite an amazing deal! James is a good friend of mine, and quite the talented writer, so I will personally vouch for Escape as well as The Mother Load.

YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

So, the only question left is, why are you reading this stupid post instead of pre-ordering Escape?

GO NOW!

The DEAD MECH Kindle Rush is on!
