Been a while since I've been on here...so what's been up??
Well, earlier this year I was working Down Unda' and during that time I was able to finalize "The Other Side" - yes, as I've said oh so many times, the EPIC CONCLUSION TO THE MOST BADASS ZOMBIE/SURVIVAL HORROR SERIES EVER!
Since, I've decided to take a bit of a break from writing. The book took a lot out of me and I'm hoping you have enjoyed reading it and following the cousins to the end. For those who haven't read it yet, definitely check it out and if you have any questions/comments/concerns/criticisms, let me know.
"But Thompson are you done writing?" many have asked.
Simply put, no, absolutely not. There's no one hit (three hit) wonder boy here. After I break out of my hermit shell and greet the writing world again, I want to put out a few short stories before I dabble into the next big super top secret project; these stories are ones I've been working on sporadically...tragedies, short comedies, film sketches...I got a lot up in here (pointing to my head). Some of it is weird, some of it is hilarious- to me. So when the passion comes back, the train will be full steam.
"So what's the timeline like?" one person has asked.
Honestly, I'm not sure. I've had some trippy dreams lately, stuff I want to turn into stories, but the will to dedicate the time behind the computer just isn't there yet. But IF I had to put a timeline on it, I'd probably say by the end of the year I'll start back up again.
I know I don't have any social media to bombard you with updates like "Look at me" "Hittin' the computer and the coffee" or "It's writing time!" but that's just not my style. No I'm not a writing hipster, it's just not my thing. I guess I'm kinda like your grandpa. But feel free to get in touch via email and I'll happily fill you in.
"So that's it, Thompson? We just sit back and wait around until the next amazing project gets going?" I don't think anyone has asked, but still I'll answer...
And the answer to that is, kinda. Despite my absence, you can check out other great indie authors. I know the zombie genre is getting a bit saturated, but there are some diamonds in the ruff. And as always, try to recommend stuff or hop on message boards or Goodreads and see what others like you are saying.
Time to sign off, and drink some delicious German beer.
Be well, enjoy the stories and stay scared.
Most importantly, thanks again for your support.
