  • New Release! Z-Burbia 7: Sisters of the Apocalypse!

    That’s right, folks, there is another novel in the Z-Burbia series! But, this time it’s Elsbeth’s turn to tell the tale of the zombie apocalypse. Y’all are gonna love this!

    Sisters!

    The end of the world is close. The dead walk the Earth, feasting on the living. Rogue bands of crazies, gangs of cannibals, and evil organizations fight for what is left of civilization. Blood and violence are the laws of the land. Those that survive must do things that no sane person should be forced to do.
    Good thing Elsbeth isn’t exactly sane.
    The savior of, and saved by, the Stanford family, Elsbeth now fights for the Stronghold. She has friends and allies willing to fight right along side her. Most of all, she has family.
    She has sisters.
    And it ain’t the sisters that need to watch out for the apocalypse. It’s the apocalypse that needs to watch out for the sisters!
    The bestselling Z-Burbia series continues, but now it is Elsbeth’s turn to tell the story. Hang on for one crazy ride with a cannibal savant and her battle-hardened sisters as they tear through the wasteland and turn the zombie apocalypse on its undead head!

  • Writing In Suburbia #30: Writers Just Want To Have Fun

    Welcome to another episode of Writing In Suburbia!

    This week I don’t rant (much) or bitch (much), but instead, I chat about the fun there is in being a pro writer. At least, what I consider fun. I’m sure you’ll dig my BS.

    Enjoy!

  • Friday Night Drabble Party!

    Well, folks, Spring has sprung in my neck of the woods. What does that even mean? How do woods have necks? English is bizarre. Anyhoo, Spring is here and with it comes a brand new world, all fresh and green and filled with pollen and spores and things that will get inside your mucous membranes and just burrow in, dig themselves right through that tender flesh and…

    What?

    Hey! Guess what? Books! BOOKS!

    Fighting Iron!

    It has thirteen reviews so far. Just thirteen. But what is interesting is how all of them are 5-star. Never had that happen before with a new book launch. The other funny thing is how many people say they didn’t expect to like the book then ended up loving it. That’s probably the best compliment I could get as a writer. Surprising even my fans is pretty sweet. So, if y’all are in the mood, have a click and check out this far-future mech western. It’s pretty kick-ass.

    Natural Wonders
    By
    Jake Bible

    The rabbit raced for the hole. It was close, only a few yards away, the opening within sight. But the creature that chased the hare was closer, only a couple feet behind, bone-white hands reaching, ready to snatch it up.

    The rabbit dodged to the left then to the right, its agility one of the many natural wonders of the world. But the pursuing creature would not be dissuaded, it chased the rabbit right up to the hole then stopped, hands on hips, mouth pursed in annoyance.

    “I wonder…” Alice said as she peered inside the rabbit hole entrance.

  • Friday Night Drabble Party!

    It’s time for some more Drabble Party fun, y’all! Gotta say that I look forward to this shindig each and every week. Y’all hear me?

    Yeah, ya do.

    Hey, you know what’s cool? Seeing Fighting Iron break the top 1000 on Amazon! Yeah, baby, that is some super cool shit right there. Not familiar with Fighting Iron? Then click the pic and get to learning, pardners! Amazon calls it a Cyberpunk novel, but I call it a far-future mech western. Read the reviews and see what others are saying.

    Tsunami
    By
    Jake Bible

    The pavement was covered with them, their tiny legs and segmented bodies moving like an entomological tsunami, ready to sweep over the man and woman that ran with every ounce of energy they had.

    The sun beat down, reflecting off the scorched parking lot, nearly blinding the fleeing couple, the heat rising in waves hot enough to steal their breath.

    They had one chance. One chance. Make a break for it and hope the RV would still start. But it didn’t look like they’d ever find out.

    The tsunami broke and the couple screamed, death by mandibles their unfortunate fate.

  • Writing In Suburbia #26: You Ain’t Hurtin’ Who You Think You Are

    Howdy!

    In this week’s episode I talk about how a lot of indie booksellers boycott CreateSpace because it’s an Amazon company. I voice my opinion on this subject and also rant a little about all the angry moms at Trader Joe’s today. Trust me, folks, they were angry. But mostly I talk about the boycott against CreateSpace.

    Enjoy!
