I did it!
After 31 years I can finally say that I will be a published author. It’s been a long, treacherous road with many up’s and down’s but I can honestly say that I wouldn’t trade any of it for this moment.
Yup, you guessed it.
The Zombie Chronicles Trilogy has been SOLD to Permuted Press in a 3-book deal that is a first for podcast fiction. Why? The opening book in the trilogy isn’t even finished yet! This deal comes based on all the episodes you have heard so far. Permuted has faith in the work, faith in me and faith in you–dear listener–that TZC will continue to be a success and while I feel the pressure already beginning to mount, I too have faith in all these things.
I would like to thank all of you who listen and support The Zombie Chronicles from the bottom of my heart. This moment isn’t just about me, it’s about all of you as well. I wouldn’t be where I am and wouldn’t be able to get to where I am going without all of you. Your emails, well wishes, tweets, facebook posts–all of it, has kept me going more than you could possible imagine and also shows the power of social media.
There is no set date as of yet for when the first book in the trilogy will hit stores (let me finish it first!) but I will be sure to keep you in the loop on all the juicy details.
Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you! I will treasure this moment, the moment I put pen to paper in order to finalize the deal, for the rest of my life. When I think back on it I will not only think back on all the hard work it took to get here but also on all of you for helping to make my boyhood dream come true.

And now for something completely different…
Do you want to learn more about the characters in The Zombie Chronicles? Want to know wh
at makes them tick? Want to interact and talk to them?
Well guess what? Now you can…on TWITTER.
Jacob, Jenny and Nameless have broken free and set up their own accounts and frankly, I don’t know what’s going to happen. Jacob swore at me last night and I think Jenny made some sort of advance towards me. Nameless, he’s just impatient. Just click on their names and add them to your list.
I’m following them just to see what they are up to and also to watch that they don’t give too much away.
I suggest you do the same!

UPDATE
Here’s the interview on THE MIDNIGHT PODCAST
It’s at 48 minutes in but I suggest you listen to the whole thing because Corey Graham ROCKS!
Today I had the chance to sit down with Corey Graham from The Midnight Podcast as he interviewed me about The Zombie Chronicles, Permuted Press, The Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of Canada and my favorite zombie movie!
I had a great time talking to Corey since I’ve been a HUGE fan of The Midnight Podcast for a while so it was an honor to get the chance to talk to him for a bit.
The interview will air on this Friday’s show, episode 110 of TMP and I hope you’ll all go and check it out.
In fact, I INSIST you go and check it out.
You wouldn’t want anything mysterious to happen to you now would you?

Let’s face it, you guys come here to listen to The Zombie Chronicles and keep up to date on what’s going on with the series. You don’t come here to listen to me bitch and moan about the state of things in this crazy mixed up world that we live in. Therefore I’ve decided that it’s time to separate fact from fiction.
I’ve started a new blog that is totally detatched from The Zombie Chronicles. It is not endorsed or supported by anyone but me.
“Uh-oh,” you might be saying. “There’s gonna be trouble.”
Hey, relax ok.
HALF NAKED is my attempt to deal with things that might not interest anyone but me. It’s going to talk about social media, the world of publishing, fiction writing and anything else I feel like mentioning. It’s not there to slam anyone or anything. I can promise you though that anything I write about there will be raw, uncut, uncensored and straight to the point.
I’ve deleated all posts on The Zombie Chronicles site that are not directly involved with the series. I have not moved them they are just gone. It’s time to start fresh, anew, if you will.
It’s time to get naked! Well, HALF NAKED…
