My Little Zombie Pony – Chambanacon After Action

My Little Zombie Pony – Chambanacon After Action

The theme of Chambanacon, the 47-year-old ‘relax-a-con’, fantasy and science fiction convention was ‘My Little Zombie Pony ‘. Here’s the logo!

The theme is a natural for Zombie Turkeys and My Undead Mother-in-law, so I was there!

Andy Zach Wins NaNoMo! Read All About It!

Andy Zach Wins NaNoMo!

Dear Andyzach.net blog readers,

It’s true. Andy Zach Wins NaNoMo! I’ve been away for blogging, slaving over a hot keyboard to write 50,000 words in November for NaNoMo, the National Novel Month contest where writers are challenged to write 50,000 words during the month of November. This is how I wrote Zombie Turkeys in November 2015 and My Undead Mother-in-law in November 2016. Both times I fell short of 50,000 words. This November I made it and wrote 50,000 words!

But …

Andy Zach Wins NaNoMo: A Pyrrhic Victory

Why was it a pyrrhic victory?

A Pyrrhic victory (/ˈpɪrɪk/ ( listen) PIRR-ik) is a victory that inflicts such a devastating toll on the victor that it is tantamount to defeat. Someone who wins a Pyrrhic victory has been victorious in some way, though the heavy toll negates a true sense of achievement or profit.

What was my terrible loss?

Losing contact with you, my beloved blog readers.

Now, coming up next:

Let’s turn this terrible loss into a terrific gain for you.

How You Can Turn Defeat Into Victory for Your Gain

Simply contact me and get a free short story, A Phoenix Tale. It’s my never-before-told story of how I got my first pet phoenix.

You didn’t know I had five pet phoenixes at my home? Here’s my official bio:

With his first book, “Zombie Turkeys” Andy blazed new ground in paranormal humor. The second book in his Life After Life Chronicles, “My Undead Mother-in-law” is now on sale for Amazon Kindle and Createspace print edition.

Andy Zach was born Anastasius Zacharias, in Greece. His parents were both zombies. Growing up, he loved animals of all kinds. After moving to the United States as a child, in high school, he won a science fair by bringing toads back from suspended animation. Before turning to fiction, Andy published his Ph.D. thesis “Methods of Revivification for Various Species of the Kingdom Animalia” in the prestigious JAPM, Journal of Paranormal Medicine. Andy, in addition to being the foremost expert on paranormal animals, enjoys breeding phoenixes. He lives in Illinois with his five phoenixes.

Free SciFi Flash Fiction and Custom Artwork

You can get Free SciFi Flash Fiction and Custom Artwork right here. First the custom artwork by Dex.

I saw this picture on the SciFi Roundtable on Facebook. We were to write some flash fiction, no more than two hundred words, based on the picture. I then contacted Dex and asked him if I could post his art here. He graciously permitted it. If you wish to use it, please contact him at his website here.

Where is the free flash fiction, Andy?

Eager, aren’t you? I put it at the bottom of the post! I want YOU to write YOUR flash fiction about this art first. Just enter it in the comment area. If you’re too shy, send me an email by clicking here.

Before you get to your free flash fiction, let me tell you about my science fiction history. I didn’t always write comic paranormal animal humor. I began by writing science fiction–in the third grade.

Before that, I discovered science fiction in the school library; this copy of Robert Heinlein’s Have Spacesuit Will Travel.

Have Space suit.jpg — The cover of the first science fiction book Andy Zach read.

What boy obsessed with science and the space program in 1963 could resist this cover? And the book was better than the cover.

My third-grade fiction I wrote? It was derived from the Lensmen series. I had force fields and ray guns and evil alien Martians.

Now I’ve established my retro SciFi credentials, the Free SciFi Flash Fiction

With no further ado, I present to you my Free SciFi Flash Fiction. Don’t forget to write your own in the comments. I assume you just scrolled down here. I’ll send a free book this month to the one I like the best!

“Criminey!” Jed swore as the rocket engine began to fail. The liquid oxygen, liquid acetylene mix was off in the red zone. “While we’re landing, naturally!”

“Looks like it’s O2 pump again,” said Betty Sue, his wife and co-pilot as she studied her instrument panel.

“Can you fix it?”

“Not before we crash. I’ll need at least ten minutes to get there and thaw out the frozen pieces.”

“This’ll be the last time I get a bargain on a rocket motor!”

“Probably true, sadly for us.”

“You can’t think of ANY way to fix it in, say, five minutes?”

“There IS a way, but you’d have to be crazy to try it.”

“I’m crazy and desperate!”

“Turn off the motors and dive.”

“That’s crazy!”

“Yeah, so are you. Turning off the motors stops the cryrogenic fuel. Diving generates friction, which might loosen the frozen oxygen pump.”

“Here goes!”
