Writing horror isn't always about blood, guts and gore.
   Sometimes the story has a heart... even if the heart in question doesn't beat any longer.
   My new story, "Of Life, Death and the Krieg" in the just-released anthology, RUN FROM THE DEAD, is a different kind of zombie story.
​   The fun of writing a story like this is getting to create something different, so my story is about the after... What happens after a man is bit by "feral zombies" and finds himself in a new, nightmarish world? What happens when he's dead--but not? Now he's part of a horde... and the horde thinks. And, he realizes, he still feels emotions... even... dare we say, love?
   Another interesting part of writing this story was the anthology had a prompt requiring a certain set of words be included.
   So, read, and enjoy the scavenger hunt! (See photo for list of included words.)

Cool cover set huh? 

​Great New Year news! First acceptances!

Got word that two of my latest "drabbles" have been accepted!
What's a drabble, you ask? Easy. 100 word stories. Coming out soon!

The stories, "The Comedians" and "Fido, fetch!" are out in 100 Word Bigger Zombie Bites. This is book 2 in the series put out by the Reanimated Writers Group. Oh, and the second book will be as cool-looking and neat to read as the first.

I had fun writing these as it's a challenge to try to stick to that short-short format. The first story, "The Comedians" also is a fun, tie-in to the book covers. Stay tuned for more details!!
