New Year New Book from Andy Zach

New Year New Book–“Wait!” you say. “What book is this?”

My next book is Secret Supers. It’s about four seventh graders with disabilities who acquire superpowers. They use their disabilities to hide their super identities and to fight crime. But it’s not easy, either being disabled or superpowered.

But that’s not all. I’m giving a free excerpt to my newsletter readers as of my next newsletter. Join here.

Different tilt on a zombie series

December 6, 2018

Format: Kindle Edition

I have read the whole series and enjoyed it. I did not find myself staying g up all night to finish or rushing home to read. That was probably a good thing as then If I had I’d of been cranky and over sleep for work. Never a pretty sight as I am not a morning person anyway. I liked the book for the unusual perspectives and storyline. If I spot about her book from this author O would definitely give it a try.

Undead Pirates?

May 7, 2018

Format: Kindle Edition

Super fun saga following the antics of the Paranormal Privateers. Laugh as they save the world. Who would have thought that the undead would be the saviors of the world? A not-so realistic view of the future of the world. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. If you like comedy, the paranormal or books about pirates, you will absolutely love Paranormal Privateers.

So what’s new beyond the new book?

How about a spaceship? A stainless steel spaceship?  Why stainless steel? Isn’t that heavy? Read about Elon Musk’s answer.

2018: Twelve Laughing Months from Andy Zach

You may ask why is my post entitled ‘2018: Twelve Laughing Months’? Because while working as a comic author and blogger I laugh almost every day. I invite you to share my laughter.

That’s a high standard for a blog! If I fall short, you can always make fun of me! Comment here if you like or dislike this post, or in the comment section below.

Twelve Laughing Months
Andy Zach, laughing at Twelve Laughing Months

Twelve Laughing Months: January

Paranormal Privateers backcover. Can you find the hidden pictures?

So what funny thing happened in January? I finished writing my first draft of Paranormal Privateers, my Novel for November by NaNoWriMo. It’s funny, because you’re supposed to finish in November. It’s funny because I actually wrote the required 50,000 words in November–and was less than half done. I misplanned–badly.

After that struggle, I was ready for some humor: The Latest Zombie Humor From Around the Web.  

Here’s my favorite from that post:

Chickens from space!

There also this: Get Your Ridiculous On. That post has this video:

Bruce Lee with a light saber. What more could you want?
Following is February . . .

Twelve Laughing Months: February

February was worse for me as a writer–I had to edit my first draft. And I was under a time crunch. And my illustrator was behind. And my editor needed time. And I’d already committed to a launch date in May.

What’s funny about that? I kick off the month with Paranormal Super Bowl!

What happens when 100,000 zombie turkeys land during the Thanksgiving Day football game?

Then there is this educational video:

Aren’t you eager to use ‘crapulous’ in a sentence?

Moving on to March . . .


Twelve Laughing Months: March

What can be funnier than your own tombstone? The epitaph on it! It’s all in this blog post, Andy Zach’s Tombstone. But don’t worry–there’s still more to come!

Advancing to August . . .

I must close with another Weird Al video. Enjoy!

Have you seen a conductor like this before?

Sequeing to September . . .

Next is November!


Twelve Laughing Months: November

Naturally, I must start with the novel that climaxes on Thanksgiving day. Laugh at this except I read from my novel Zombie Turkeys. From blog post:A Zombie Turkeys Thanksgiving to You–Say What?

Zombie Turkeys on Thanksgiving

After Thanksgiving I went to Chambanacon, a relaxacon, a relaxed SciFi/Fantasy convention. Here’s a picture of me and Brenda Sutton, to give you the vibe there.

Finally, delight in December.
