"Feeding the Dead Inside"

I'm flattered to say that "Feeding the Dead Inside," my twisted, cold-hearted story from Mondo Zombie, is on the recommendation list for the Preliminary Bram Stoker Ballot. For those HWA members who might be interested, there's a link to a pdf file of it off the Stoker Recommendations page. I would give it away free to everyone, but I can't in good conscience do that because then the publisher doesn't get paid (everyone knows how I feel about bootlegged copies of DVDs and videos and such). I haven't done much promo for it, so it still needs a couple of recs to be able to hang in there for the finals against all of the great competition.

In other news (okay, not much), The Husband ([info]westonochse) and I found ourselves completely exhausted last night. He went to bed with a book (no comments, please - ha ha) at 7:30; I followed with no book (shhhhhh) at 9:40. Oddly enough, we're both still tired tonight. Maybe it's the weather, which turned cold and rainy sometime after lunch (and yes, I'd left my car window open because it had been so pleasant at lunchtime) and now has a chance of snow. Wait, I'm in Arizona, right??! Anyway, I actually went to the gym and got on the treadmill for the first time since November, and even did some lat pulldowns. It is, after all, a New Year.

Not doing stellar on the writing, but I have done some. The only thing we're tasked to do this weekend is to put away the Christmas decorations, so I'm looking forward to getting back to it.  It's amazing how fast the time goes when I'm writing, and how slow it goes when I'm not.

Thanks. Hmmm. I think I need some kind of muscle-related userpic for this. Maybe something along the lines of Wesley Snipes's bicep. ::hee hee::

Hey Yvonne

Big time congratulations!!!
A question: Do you consider DeadRush to be a Zombie novel? That was a very cool book.

Take Care
HAve Fun
