Your latest laughs from around the world

Your latest laughs from around the world. But you ask, “What do you have for me this week, Andy?”

Lots! First of all, you’ve got this:

Would you play this at your wedding?

This is from TwosetViolin, one of my favorite Youtube channels. I also have an Andy Zach channel, for your viewing pleasure.

But that’s not all! I finished another short story, Her Majesty’s Corgi’s. It’s based on a little incident in My Undead Mother-in-law. You can read it for free on Kindle Unlimited. The short story will appear in my next book, Oops! Tales from the Turkey Apocalypse.

Then there’s this bitter argument between two lynxes.

Do you ever argue with your significant lynx?

But perhaps you prefer more chicken music?

Pachelbel’s Chicken

I don’t comment on politics, but I found this next video commenting on the United Kingdom and the European Union hilarious in light of the Brexit controversy.

US citizens who don’t know about or care about Brexit can just skip this one.

No Laughter Break for News

I found this video of a car-sized meteor hitting near Adelaide Australia. If you’ve never seen a large meteor before, check out the video.

Here is a science fact you may not know about human language.

The Bermudas and the US suffered from Hurricane Dorian this week. For a science fiction author like myself, I love the view of this terrible storm from space.

In addition to my Andy Zach Facebook page, I have a Zombie Turkey page where I post turkey related items, like this next one.

Did you know my book My Undead Mother-in-law has corgis in it?

I can’t finish this blog without a satiric article about craft beer, one of my favorite hobbies.

Don’t miss out on free books! My monthly drawing is today!

2 New Science Fiction Books from Andy Zach

“2 New Science Fiction Books? I thought you just had one book coming out this month, Andy.”

On pre-sale on Kindle. You can get the paperback now.

Nope. I’m also in this new anthology about disabled heroes.

A charity anthology

“A charity anthology? What’s the charity?”

Special Olympics gets all the profit.

“So what’s Challenge Accepted all about?”

Here’s the book description from the back:


A blind spaceship pilot. 
Cops and maintenance personnel in wheelchairs.
Taking on bad guys with only one leg or no arms.
It’s not what you are that makes you something special. It’s who you choose to be.
Seventeen stories about people who rise above anything that tries to stop them, even their own limitations.

With stories by Stephanie Barr, Micha Burnett, J. A. Busick, Adam David Collings, Steve Curry, Scott G. Gibson, Joyce Hertzoff, Jane Jago, Clarence Jennelle, Jeanette O’Hagan, Layla Pinkett, Jen Ponce, Connor Sassmannshausen, Lynne Stringer, E. M. Swift-Hook, Margret Treiber, Andy Zach. 

Coordinated by Stephanie Barr with all proceeds to go to the Special Olympics

From Amazon

“Sounds really good. So what do you have in there, Andy?”

I have a story from Secret Supers where the four 7th-graders use their superpowers for the first time to fight crime.

“And these guys are disabled?”

Yup. One has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair. One is blind. Another can’t talk and can barely walk. And the last one lost her legs in a car accident.

“I’ve gotta read that just to find out how they make that work.”

There are seventeen other stories too.

“Do you have the origin story for your Secret Supers?”

Only in my book.
