So as a some of you know, Dh is a writer, he writes alot of short stories and has completed a novella as well as working on on novel, he also belong to a local writers group that meets a couple times a month and gives each other a helping hand in read and giving feedback on their writing idea’s, styles etc.
Well, he had never really put anything in to be published, he was writing for himself more then anything, and then took a seminar on how to get published this year and so while I was at mom’s, he sent in his first story and within a very short time, he got a no.. something every writer will get, however he wrote a peice for a collection of short stories by canadian authers for superhero’s and supervillins and he sent it in, and waited and waited and the first draft came back with edits and request for rewrites on this or that, and he did so and yesterday, he got the letter back that its a YES!
They had a few extra little edits, nothing that bothered him at all, and so his first paid and published story will be going out to book stores in the early part of 2013, and he is currently being writing a zombie story for a different short story collection, and if he can pull it together around the story ark that we have figured out, it will rock! Got to ask the zombie queen (that would be me) for feedback on this and that.. I know what is normal and I know what will pull the fans and yet what is just different enough that its not the same old, same old.. and I think we have come up with something that could really fly! ;P
So proud of my guy!
Just another Day on the Farm 
Congratulations J!
Félicitations! When it’s all done, say which book it is I’d like to read it!
This is AWESOME news; congrats to DH and his Zombie (research; ) Queen!
Don’t forget the zombie Ma. She wants a part in this as well! Can’t wait for October when the Walking Dead starts again!
how awesome! make sure to give us the titles when they come out! perhaps a link on the side so all of his fans can buy a copy. i really enjoyed the work from him that you have posted here. i even had my husband read them. zombies, so much fun!
Will do, I will put up the link for sure.
Congratulations! Be sure to have him choose a great nom de plume (wouldn’t want to break opsec)! I’d love to read something by someone I kind of “know”, at least through the blog.
I regret to say that he indeeds to use his real name, I will post the book and for those that want to know, I will reply privately on which one is his LOL If he gets to the point of a full published novel instead of being part of a short story collect, I will just have to let you guys know and then answer anyone who wants to know privately instead of publicly..
