• In this week’s episode I chat a bit about branding. I go into the whys and whynots. I talk about the BS that is spewed, and it being me, I spew some of my own BS. It’s more informative than it sounds. Trust me.

    Also, Christmas music!

    Enjoy!

    So Many Things
    By
    Jake Bible

    “Skip the rock, Horace,” Magdalena said. “Take it like this and throw.”

    “I can’t, Maggie,” Horace whimpered. “Not with that thing in the pond.”

    “Ignore it,” Magdalena replied. “We’re safe on shore.”

    “It looks like it can reach,” Horace said, his hand shaking as he gripped the flat, round rock. “It has a lot of arms.”

    “Just skip the darn rock,” Magdalena sighed. “We need to get home before dark. You know, because of the thing in the woods.”

    “Yeah,” Horace said as he stared at the thing in the water.

    So many things to deal with. So many things.

  • That’s right, folks, there is a new DTA available now! Dead Team Alpha 2: The Stronghold!

    This sequel to Dead Team Alpha picks up where the last novel left off. And, AND, it has a very special character in it that should have my Z-Burbia fans going cuckoo for cocoa puffs!

    So get to the clicking and buy yourself an early Holiday present! DO IT NOW!

    The Stronghold.
    A fortified survivor pocket tucked into the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in the former Boulder, Colorado. A culture based on military training and strength, the Stronghold is now the last bastion for the living. For nearly a century the Stronghold has thrived, rebuilding a small slice of civilization in the midst of a zombie infested wasteland.
    But that is all about to change.
    The pride of the Stronghold, Dead Team Alpha, the elite strike force that helps keep not just the Zs, but crazies, cannibals, and cults from overrunning the walled sanctuary, is being put to the ultimate test- banding together with one of the community’s most deadly enemies in order for all of humanity to survive.
    Why would DTA need to put its trust in a crazy cult that almost killed them all? Because the Z herds are not lessening, they are getting bigger and stronger!
    It is a race against time, as DTA struggles to defend the Stronghold from the millions of undead that march towards them, hungry for the last bits of living flesh left in a land that is nothing but death for as far as the eyes can see!

  • Thanksgiving is over, but that doesn’t mean I can’t still be thankful! In this week’s episode I talk about the things I am thankful for and also about other stuffs. Lots of other stuffs. I get rambly because that’s how I roll!

    Enjoy!

    Twine!
    By
    Jake Bible

    “Ten men! Ten Women! Nothing but open desert, a pair of shoes, and one very long piece of twine!”

    “That’s right, Robert! For the fifteenth year in a row, twenty citizens will compete to the death in a hostile environment all for the glory of one very long piece of twine!”

    “It’s all about the twine, Jerry! Nothing but twine tonight!”

    “You don’t have to tell me, Robert! If there was ever a prize to risk your life for, it is this very long piece of twine!”

    “I am so jealous right now!”

    “Aren’t we all, Robert! Aren’t we all!”

    Cheers!
