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!

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!
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.
Oh, and guess what else? Go ahead, guess. GUESS! Okay, okay, I’ll tell ya. Salvage Merc One is available on Audible!
But, wait, that’s not all! Just before posting this, I was informed that a certain Z-Burbia sequel is now available in ebook form! Welcome to Z-Burbia 7: Sisters of the Apocalypse!
KERPOW!
Now, how about we get some drabble action goin’ on, yo? WORD!
Enjoy!

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.

Welcome back to more Writing In Suburbia!
This week I talk about the difference between self-doubt/self-loathing and fear. For those of you that worry about being “worthy” as a writer, this episode is for you. And for those that live in a constant state of fear when it comes to your writing career, this episode is for you as well.

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.
Okay, okay, enough about me. Y’all are here to read 100 words of awesome. Who am I to get in the way of the party?
Enjoy!

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.

Welcome back to more Writing In Suburbia!
In this week’s episode I chat about the negative in-fighting within the writing community. Genre versus genre, author versus author, literary versus the world, traditionally published versus self-published!
It’s a good episode, yo!
