I've Been Deader

One of the best writers on Authonomy -- which is a great writing resource for budding authors -- is Splinker the sock puppet, also known as Adam Sifre. He's one of the wittiest writers I've read, but he has serious writing skills also. If anyone recalls the March Madness literary tournament I posted about recently, his second novel Take a Breather is in the final. Take a Breather is the prequel to a very unique novel that Splinker has recently published.
It's called I've Been Deader and anyone who loves comedy horror should give it a try. It's available in paperback or eBook. It's not your standard zombie apocalypse -- the main character is one of the zombies! If you think that can't make a viable and entertaining book, then you don't know Splinker.

Everyone should know Splinker.

    I find so little on the internet these days that I agree with, but this is special.

    Splinker reminds me of Triumph the Insult Dog on Conan O'Brien.

    I think you should have written more about Splink's tough battle to reach the final.
