Top Post By nickie (1 thumbs up):


The first three pages of my in-progress zombie novel, Young Zombies in Love, are available for reading over on the Permuted Press forums.

This is a different story from the novella, The King in Red, that is serialized on the LotLD podcast.

I hope the Good Librarians will check it out.  Please post a comment here or on the PP forums.

Re: "ZOMBONAUTS" ..... Cover wrap by Deedee

That is awesome. I want!
Off the subject, just a little. I have a roommate from college who is a well awarded artist (including a Charles M. Schultz) He was wondering what he would have to do around here to get into some cover art.

-jeyberg

Can he draw clowns, dinosaurs, spiders and (of course) zombies? grin

"*It's all true. God's an astronaut, Oz is over the rainbow & Midian's where the monsters live."
Cabal was my favorite Clive Barker book. The movie was so cool, I wish they came out with a sequel.

 I have no meth.  I did get an A+ in chemistry and I can whip up some wicked LSD.  In fact, Doc, if you are reading that letter I mailed you it is soaking into your skin through your fingers right now. devil

This is a wicked cool idea, I love all the full production stories.

Wicked is my word this week.  Wicked, Wicked, Wicked.

Re: UPDATED OPEN AND CLOSED ANTHOLOGIES AND SUBMISSION GUIDELINES--UPDATED SEPTEMBER 26, 2009

October 28, 2009 by nickie

Oh, oh, is this a fill in the blanks (or asterix) thingy Nickie?

-dr-pus

If it wasn't horribly vain, I would suggest that the first person to figure it out gets an autographed picture of me.  That would be a bit much.  angel

I do have this neat idea for a series of stories and in homage to our favorite publisher, the title of the series starts with "Doc".  That is the one with the Magician, the Clown, the Dinosaur, the giant Spider and (of course) Zombies!

(Because everything tastes better with zombies.)

I started a new chapter of The King in Red last night for the podcast.  It also has a painfully obvious homage to our favorite podcast persona.  You will get to read that soon, Doc.  I would like to finish it before the end of the week.

Brain Damage.

Aylmer's tune!  The only movie with a singing slug that produces psychedelic drugs when you feed it human brains. 

In an odd way, it reminds me of my life...

Somehow, I truly doubt that.

-theblackempty

You make a good point.  I find your ideas intriguing and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

I was in luck, Doc was saving a spot for me as I had previously mentioned I was working on a ZIII story. 

This is a new story for me, it is not a part of The King in Red.  It is a part of my new idea,

Doc ******'s ****** ******

What a great idea.  I have always wanted to do a project where I work with an artist.  Does anyone know someone who can draw magicians, clowns and dinosaurs?

not only does jesus love gore but I have certainly put excessive gore in my stories I think I am quite prolific at it.

-unoshato

Plot and characters are highly over-rated.  Ask Michael Bay.  I was planning on having 100 pages of giant robots fighting.  No plot, just HOT robot on robot action.

I would enjoy a chance to contribute to the Sci Fi collection.  I would need some time to knock out a 100 page novella.

Re: Call out to Authors with novels.

October 19, 2009 by nickie

Don't be confused Nickie.
What I was saying is that if we do a novella I want the stories in it to be 30K. It would contain 4 stories for a total of 120K.

And writingdad, if you'd like to collect up the novellas, the job's yours. Contact me via PM or e-mail.

-dr-pus

I'm always a little confused.  It goes with the hair. wink

I like the idea of a novella collection.
