For those of you who don't know, our own Mexican Jack Squint, aka Howard Whitehouse, has just had another novel published-- ZOMBIE ELEMENTARY: THE REAL STORY. It features the adventures of a plucky group of children who encounter a zombie plague in their elementary school. Of course, none of the adults believe them, a common thread with all 4th Graders everywhere. None of the adults, that is except one, a harassed government functionary (and handsome devil) of an underfunded agency that concerns itself with paranormal events. Played by none other than myself.. not a facsimile of me, but the actual me. ZOMBIE ELEMENTARY is a fun, light read aimed at the young adult market, but adults will like it too (if you are a fan of Howard's literary style, as I am).

Hope you survived for the sequel!

I hope you are at least getting a percentage of the royalties.

Lee Brilleaux Fezian18 Sep 2014 8:44 a.m. PST

Of course he's not. He gets paid by the government to eliminate zombies (also werewolves, vampires and aliens). He can't receive royalties as well.

John the OFM18 Sep 2014 9:15 a.m. PST

I can see where that would be a conflict of interest.

79thPA Supporting Member of TMP18 Sep 2014 9:44 a.m. PST

Valid point.

Will it be made into a SyFy movie…? ;-)

I'm a mad werewolf doctor in Jen Haeger's forensic veterinary/lycanthropy novels . . . .

So, besides Walt and Alex, who else made the cut?

WaltOHara18 Sep 2014 2:56 p.m. PST

I'm pretty sure I found Bob Chicka of Evil Bob's Miniature Emporium in there somewhere.

I didn't find that character believable at all…

Lee Brilleaux Fezian18 Sep 2014 8:23 p.m. PST

I tried to get as many people (and especially their kids) into the book as possible, though most of them come out badly.

I get killed in one of the Deadlands Noir sourcebooks
