Make Your Black Friday Fun

And no, I don't mean going to the mall and smacking the shit out of idiots who shove aside and knock down children and old ladies to get a good deal (although that would be fun). I'm talking about turning your Black Friday into Cyber Monday. Go to my Amazon Author's Page and do your shopping there. Not only do you get to sit around your house in your PJs and bathrobe, drinking a hot cup of coffee while getting all your shopping done, but you help out an independent writer.

If zombies are what gets their brain juices flowing, and you really like them, then give them the gift of a zombie trilogy, my Rotter World saga (Rotter World, Rotter Nation, Rotter Apocalypse) about humans and vampires trying to survive a zombie apocalypse. Don't forget my Nazi zombie novellas -- Nazi Ghouls From Space and Twilight of the Living Dead. Cruise of the Living Dead: A Zombie Anthology is also a great choice as is Dead Water, my novella which is a sequel to Cruise.

Maybe the person you're buying a gift for is a pain in the neck and prefers vampires. Then give them The Vampire Hunters Omnibus which includes all three books in the trilogy -- The Vampire Hunters, Vampyrnomicon, and Dominion. The best part is they don't sparkle, they don't brood, and they don't date teenage girls. My vampires eat their way through humans like they're Christmas cookies.

Maybe your loved one's tastes are a bit more weird... I mean refined. No worries. Send them a copy of Yeitso, my homage to 1950s big monster movies. Or how about the gift that keeps on giving (nightmares) -- my horror anthology Incident on Ironstone Lane that includes everything from murder, sewer monsters, to torture porn.

Okay, I get it. You're embarrassed to admit you read my stuff. (Mom: "You read this psycho's books?" You: "Errr... good gravy, mom. Can I have the recipe?") Understandable. Then don't forget my young adult post-apocalypse horror series the Hell Gate Saga under my pseudo Josh Matthews -- Hell Gate, Wasteland in Red Square, and Rise of the Sataners. They're fun, adventurous, action-packed but won't warp young impressionable minds.

So this Black Friday and Cyber Monday, let your fingers do the shopping on Amazon and give the best gift you can give a loved one, the gift of reading.
