    Table of Contents Announced for New Heroes Anthology

    Hey everyone,

    I’m really excited! The New Hero anthology Table of Contents has been announced and I’m in it!. You may recall me posting about my short story and Stone Skin Press a while back where I talked about “Fangs and Formaldehyde,” about an iconic vampire. One of the inspirations for this particular story was Twilight. No seriously, it really was. To me, many modern-day vampires have had their fangs removed. Even though they prey on humans to survive and have traditionally been monstrous creatures, they’ve been de-fanged for romantic plot purposes. Mind you, I have absolutely no problem with romance authors or readers. Romance is a popular genre and it does have its place in our wide, wide world of fiction. These authors work just as hard as anyone else does to tell a good story.

    When I was working on my story, I wanted my modern vampires needed to have a legitimate reason why they weren’t monstrous creatures that wasn’t just: “Because otherwise people will hunt us.” This was a lot of fun to worldbuild because it was a challenge. Was I able to do something unique? Well, you can be the judge of that.

    Standing alongside me are several other fine authors including Rich Dansky, Kyla Ward. Ed Greenwood and my friend Maurice Broaddus. After you check it out, be sure to read Diagramming the New Hero where the editor, Robin Laws, explains how he put the order together.

    Got a Brain? Pre-Order The Zombie Feed Vol 1

    The Zombie Feed Volume 1Earlier I posted the Table of Contents for The Zombie Feed, Volume 1. My short story is entitled “Tomorrow’s Precious Lambs.”

    If you follow my work, this particular short story will be unusual for you to read because it’s a lot darker and grittier than my other stories. When I was figuring out an angle for this tale, I built a world where the zombie invasion wasn’t completely devastating. Then, I gave my zombies some unique attributes that supported the main character’s story. Told from a cop’s perspective, you’ll find out why he lives day to day, hanging on to whatever hope he can find.

    I hope you consider picking up a copy of The Zombie Feed Vol. 1. Not only will you find out why my story is entitled “Tomorrow’s Precious Lambs,” but you’ll also read other sinister tales by acclaimed authors including Lucien Soulban and B.J. Burrow.

    To get your hands on a copy just click on the book cover or pre-order The Zombie Feed Vol. 1 and feed your head! The editor will be signing your copy; several of these writers, including myself, will be happy to sign our stories as well.

    My Horror Short Story and The Zombie Feed

    Hi everyone,

    I am thrilled to announce that my horror short story entitled “Tomorrow’s Precious Lambs” has been selected for the debut anthology from The Zombie Feed. This story was a lot of fun to write; the words sounded like music when I wrote them down. If I had to give this one a rating, though…it’d definitely be more on the “R” side.

    Anyway, thought you might want to check out the Table of Contents to see some of the other authors.
