Taking Zombies Back to School!

On April 3 next month, I'll be on the campus of University of North Georgia (the Gainesville Campus), sharing my thoughts on writing Zombie Lit. Being the way-cool college it is, UNG offers a course called Zombie Literature, and as part of that course students have to create a zombie tale of some form (movie, short story, etc.). I'll also be doing a reading of one of my zombie short stories for the class.

I did this last year and had a blast, and the students really seemed to enjoy it too.

And until the day I can finally teach literature at the university level (yeah, right), this will certainly do for now.

Grrr. Brains.

Zombie Lit and Me

Guess who is going to be speaking to Zombie Lit classes tomorrow at North Georgia's Gainesville Campus? 

This guy. 

Can't wait. 

I'll be reading my short story "Posthumous" from Daw/Penguin's Zombiesque anthology and talking about writing zombie stories and how when we write about zombies, we're usually writing about something else.
