Internet Sabbatical

I'll be taking a sabbatical from the internet (not a sabbatical on the internet, that would just be weird) for a couple weeks beginning on Tuesday. As I very painstakingly moderate all of the posts, none will appear until I get back no matter how many times you try. Sorry!

But if you are surfing and looking for things to do, you can check out Joe Frawley's music, which I referred to in my last blog. You can take the zombie quiz at GenDead.com. You can go buy some beautiful comic book art from my good friend Matthew Dow Smith at his blog matthewdowsmithoriginalart. A surfeit of wonders, that Internet.

See you later!

Er, this isn't related at all to your latest blog, but I just wanted to ask you this. Have you ever read the book "The Boys Next Door"? It's my favorite romance comedy and it sort of reminded me of your books (which I absolutely love even though they made me cry). There's this guy named Adam who plays football, lives right next door to the girl, and has a somewhat similar personality.

Well, this will be here for when you get back lol. I didn't know how else to get in touch with you, but I just have to say that after reading both Generation Dead books in under two days, I am in love.

I cried so hard at the end of both of them, and I don't even like zombies! I'm on the vampire side of the argument, but you do a fantastic job of putting a very real and awesome spin on the whole living dead thing.

I cannot wait for the third one (if there will be.....!) and I was wondering if there was a time window in which maybe it would be released.

Anyways, you are a genius and these two are now my favorite books. I rarely ever am moved by such works, but these did it. Thank you for giving me a new obsession!

Hi Lily!

I took a break from the internet, that's all.

Take care,

Hi Watching!

Please do! You won't regret it.

Take care,
Dan

Hi crazy_music_dreamer!

I have never read that book, but it sounds good. I hope the Adam in that book doesn't become a zombie, because then I'd probably get into trouble, somehow.

Take care,
Dan

Hi Anonymous!

Yes! Passing Strange should be out next May.

Take care,
Dan

Hi Alexandra!

Thank you! I'm sorry I made you cry, though. Some people have said that they rip out the acknowledgements page and use it as a hankie when reading the book. Ok, that's a lie.

(see above for third book answer)

Take care,
Dan

Hi Anonymous!

Karen figures heavily in book three, but I won't say how...

Take care,
Dan
