Tie up the week with some groovy stuff!


Well this week has just sort of gotten away from me. I have to say that I have never been so busy, and it is the best feeling in the world. Many of you know that I was recently given the honor of becoming Mark Tufo's editor for his amazing Zombie Fallout series, (Book 6 is available now and it is amazing!) Well, I have also recently added an international name...Steen Langstrup. Hailing from Copenhagen, Denmark, Steen writes some really groovy crime-noir stuff. His name is already very well known in his homeland, and I expect it to become huge over here as well. Check out his WW II thriller now titled The Informer (Sabotage Group BB).

You may think, "Wow, good for you!" But it just got better. I am thrilled to once more be a part of the HWA. Yes, I just renewed my lapsed membership in the Horror Writers Association. This was possible because my wonderful wife (with a Master's degree) who has been part of the millions of faceless Americans without a job for the past year and a half has finally gone back to work! Of course this comes just as she has started work on her SECOND Master's degree. So now she will have Forensic Accounting next to her MBA. All of this would be enough...but when it rains, it pours...

Last night, I was thrilled to be contacted by another very talented author. If all goes well, I may be adding John O' Brien to my list of amazing authors that have hired me on as editor.

It is because of all of this that I must announce that blog posts will change after this next week. I will be firming things up, but it looks like I will be here on Monday (this week will start my weekly review of The Walking Dead series), Wednesday, Friday (featuring Vinnie DeSporto who is gone this week but will return next week if you folks want him back) and maybe Saturday.

Have a great weekend, and stop in tomorrow as I resume featuring more of the writers from Tales from the Mist.

  4. That's awesome, Todd. Grats, bro! I'm looking forward to your Walking Dead review. I read somewhere that there's no dialogue for first third of the episode, and an epic body count. I'm counting down the minutes!

    I love WWII stuff, too, so I'll add that to my TBR stack.

    Congrats to Denise, too, and best of luck in her new endeavors.
