New Hampshire's Emerging Writers Has Been Released

A little bit later than scheduled, but New Hampshire's Emerging Writers: An Anthology has been released. New Hampshire's most promising up-and-coming authors have the chance to share their own words. Covering a wide array of genres and topics, these young talents will amaze you. Containing one essay per writer, this anthology is a compelling introduction to the great wordsmiths of tomorrow. There are some excellent writers and stories in this anthology, including my own work "Recognition," which details a living dead outbreak from a zombie's point of view.

Z Publishing's "Emerging Writers" publications are part of an experimental series designed to match readers looking for new voices with up-and-coming authors looking to widen their reader base. The publisher likes to refer to publications in this series as "sampler platters" of writers and genres, such that readers can quickly and efficiently discover talented authors that they may otherwise have never heard of as well as compelling genres, topics, and themes they may never have given a shot before.

You can pick up your copy of New Hampshire's Emerging Writers: An Anthology, or any of the other state anthologies in the "Emerging Writers" series, at Z Publishing or on Amazon.

Upcoming Releases for September

This September, I'll have two works being released.

The first is my World War II-themed zombie novella Twilight of the Living Dead, which deals with the fall of Berlin to the dead army rather than the Red Army. The release date is TBD, but the cover reveal will be on 1 September.

The second is my zombie short story "Recognition" about a zombie outbreak from the living dead's point of view. It will be released on 13 September in Z Publishing's New Hampshire Emerging Writers anthology. You can pre-order your copy here.

Cruise of the Living Dead: A Zombie Anthology To Be Released 3 March

As promised, here are the details for the upcoming Cruise of the Living Dead: A Zombie Anthology. It's my birthday present to my fans.

The book is scheduled for release for 3 March, but you can pre-order it here.

The stories included in the anthology are:

"Cruise of the Living Dead" - Carissa Banning, a cruise ship's medical officer, finds herself at ground zero of a zombie outbreak when an infected family aboard ship spreads the virus through the passengers and crew.

"Rednecks Shouldn't Play With Dead "Things" - Sam Grodin and his buddies think they stumbled across the ultimate hunting experience when zombies attack their campsite. However, when these zombies fail to behave the way they do in the movies, Sam and the others realize they have bitten off more than they can chew.

"The Hunger" - Janet Simmons has been roaming an apocalyptic wasteland for months avoiding the living dead and trying to find enough food to stay alive. When she stumbles across another survivor, she suddenly finds herself in a human eat human world.

"Last Flight of the Bismarck" - Victorian adventuress Scarlet and her male companion Chappy thought they were taking a trans-Atlantic flight in Germany's latest airship, the Bismarck. When they discover that the Bismarck is actually being used as a delivery device to infect the Northern United States with steampunk-enhanced zombies, they engage in an epic battle with the living dead in the skies above New York City.

"Is Anyone Out There?" - An isolated survivor of a zombie outbreak uses the Internet to contact family and friends before the world comes to an end.

"Recognition" - A never-before-published short story that follows the turning of a human into one of the living dead from the zombie's point of view.

So if you love spine-chilling, blood-curdling, gut-munching tales of the living dead, you will definitely want to pick up a copy.
