Doing Apex Book Company is hard.
I mean that in a good way. I’ve never work on anything so rewarding and fun. And by ‘rewarding’ I’m not talking financially, though I’m finally not losing my shirt. I mean giving myself a feeling of self-accomplishment, that I’m doing something positive in the world. Probably sounds corny, but there you go.
All the same, I do think it’s healthy to keep a person’s interests varied. So occasionally I’ll venture a step or two outside the Apex comfort zone. For example, Dark Futures. Now there’s The Zombie Feed.
What is The Zombie Feed?
First, the url: http://thezombiefeed.biz.
I’m a zombie fan. One of the defining images of my childhood was Bud and the gang ripping out the Colonel’s innards during the horrific climax of Day of the Dead (you can blame my mom for letting me watch the movie). I’ve watched zombies be the new ‘hotness’ for the past five years. Now I want to play.
Ebooks are currently hot, as well. So I thought why not combine the two?
At The Zombie Feed you can purchase a subscription to receive 52 zombie short stories for just $15. Alternatively, you can buy separate stories that have run in the feed for $1.00.
The Zombie Feed is a separate beast from Apex Book Company. They’re not related businesses, but to keep my accounting simple The Zombie Feed is under the Apex Publications corporate banner. I do expect to occasionally cross-promote and link to each site from the other.
I’d like to ask the 15 readers of this blog a few small favors.
1) Consider subscribing to the feed. Failing that, follow the blog. Traffic is good!
2) Blog or tweet about the Feed
2) Suggest zombie reprints for me to pursue for the Feed. Doing a story a week means I’ll always be, uh, hungry for zombie stories. If you have a suggestion, just leave it in a comment below!
Thanks!
