My zombies earn some appreciation!

By jasonb57

Last year I edited a woefully under-appreciated zombie anthology titled The Zombie Feed, Vol. 1. Maybe I exaggerate. It did receive tons of positive reviews, but it never caught much traction with readers. I suspect the lack of any “bankable” names has played a role in this, but those who took a chance on the book were rewarded with some amazing stories by soon-to-be-stars like Maggie Slatter, Kristin Dearborn (who just sold her first novel), Daniel I. Russell, Monica Valentinelli, and Danger Slater.

So… you can imagine how pleased I was to find that the anthology was nominated for a Dead Letter Award for Best Zombie Anthology. :)

The award is voted by fans. I encourage you to go vote for TZF V1 and help my unloved undead antho pick up some recognition.

Here is the ballot: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dGl5Mzd3eVVFMm0zTVFQMXFhRy0wa3c6MA

I don’t think I can divulge details just yet, but I found out one of the antho stories will be reprinted in a major reprint anthology. A double whammy of love!

The Zombie Feed, Vol. 1 is alive!

By jasonb57

The Zombie Feed Volume 1I have a new anthology out. It is called The Zombie Feed, Volume 1. It’s a great little zombie anthology… perhaps “little” is the wrong adjective because this sucker is nearly 300 pages of ooey-gooey zombie nastiness!

During the production of TZFV1, I was asked numerous times if I was going to do a second volume. My answer to each query was “If enough people buy the first…” So, if you’re hoping I do another zombie volume, then now would be an opportune time to help make a second become a reality.

There aren’t any big “names” in TZFV1. Nobody received more pay than anyone else. This anthology was built using a simple maxim: select the best stories and run with it. Perhaps not the best way to go from a marketing perspective, but it is the one I desired for this particular volume.

The anthology is priced at a reasonable $15.95 for print and an insanely reasonable $2.99 for digital.

Help make the dream of a second volume of zombies come true. Grab a copy of The Zombie Feed, Volume 1!
