ZOMBIESQUE now in bookstores!

DAW’s ZOMBIESQUE anthology, including my story “A Distant Sound of Hammers”, is now shuffling mindlessly through bookstores everywhere.

This is the first story that I’ve sold three times (first print rights, anthology rights, audio rights) and I’m pretty proud of it. It’s also the first to hit a bookstore shelf.

A tightly compressed, slightly modified, and free audio version of the story is available on Drabblecast here.

But the original “director’s cut” (as it were) is in Zombiesque. You can buy it from Amazon here. Give it a shot!
