I have no read Soulless, but I believe that is by Chris Golden and I've hung out with Chris a couple times and he is an excellent human being.<br /><br />Take care,<br />DanDaniel Watershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00056797282149019086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362670344247251470.post-42490730317870931752011-01-27T12:23:44.856-05:002011-01-27T12:23:44.856-05:00OMZ! ;)

These books are some of my favourite books ever...But I had to skip over all of the Pete chapters in Kiss of Life because I was still so mad at him lol.<br /><br />I cannot wait for your next book! :)<br /><br /><3<br /><br /><br />PS have you read the book Soulless? I forget the author but it's another great zombie book, but with another different take on the whole zombie plague story. If not, it's a great read! :)Melnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362670344247251470.post-2066030931734826482011-01-26T20:38:35.855-05:002011-01-26T20:38:35.855-05:00Hi Anonymous!

I think you could gain a new following there as well. And it's only 140 characters at a time! :-) I think it is great how you connect with your readers, so keep that up, and good luck with your goals!Lisa Mandinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02691593776280004137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362670344247251470.post-40694047657610641532011-01-09T22:20:31.707-05:002011-01-09T22:20:31.707-05:00Hi Sandi!

Thank you kindly for posting.<br /><br />And good luck with your goals as well!<br /><br />Take care,<br />Dan<br /><br />Hi Jade!<br /><br />Thanks for the well-wishes! I can honestly say that I enjoy writing more than just about anything else; the only time I feel burned out is when other things keep me from doing it. <br />And thanks for sticking around!<br /><br />Take care,<br />Dan<br /><br />Hi shy yet talkative girl!<br /><br />I will write about writing more, promise. And you know, I've offered to do "Live Chats" at the Haunted House a couple times, but it never happens for some reason. But I'll try to stop by more.<br /><br />Take care,<br />Dan<br /><br />Hi Lydia!<br /><br />Sorry about the yoghurt mishap, owtch. I killed a keyboard with iced coffee once so I can sympathize.<br /><br />As far as getting over the fear of showing your work to others, I still have it! But I think the key is finding some like-minded friends who like to write as well. Or just one friend. <br /><br />But always, write for yourself.<br /><br />Write and read everyday. Everyday. This may sound callous, but if you do that you will reach this sort of internal tipping point where you don't really care what other people think about your work. Which is okay.<br /><br />If you are bored, check out my reviews on Amazon or Goodreads, and you'll see a wide range, a bunch of ones, a bunch of fives, and a whole bunch in between. The fives are nice, the ones are occassionally infuriating (although the worst for me are the threes that just didn't get it), but at the end of the day I need to be my own judge of my successes and failures.<br /><br />Take your time. Keep writing and reading and the confidence will come. It will come from inside you more than from someone else.<br /><br />Take care,<br />Dan<br /><br />Hi Cassie!<br /><br />No 4th book as planned at this time, but the future is unwritten! I think I'll probably be writing Generation Dead stories for a long, long time.<br /><br />Take care,<br />DanDaniel Watershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00056797282149019086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362670344247251470.post-6992823151488920912011-01-09T15:00:22.264-05:002011-01-09T15:00:22.264-05:00Yeah man you should blog more.

Sigh. <br /><br />I would really like to hear more about what you're reading. I love book recommendations.<br /><br />I think writing advice would be good as well. Like, I am absolutely terrified of letting anyone see my creative writing... any advice on how to get over that?<br /><br />Happy new year.

I noticed you have an account but are never on. All of us at the HH would be very excited if you became a frequent visitor that we could talk to just like any other member.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05013094452720206269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362670344247251470.post-2265616774311451262011-01-09T01:58:16.174-05:002011-01-09T01:58:16.174-05:00I would love for you to blog more.

Please, get a twitter, there is nothing scary about it. I just started using mine again after not for about a year. And if you could write about writing such as giving tips to aspiring writers, that would be amazing. I would love if I were to one day become as great a writer as you.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05013094452720206269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362670344247251470.post-83162478645876405562011-01-09T01:19:22.017-05:002011-01-09T01:19:22.017-05:00I'm a big fan of your goal to blog more both o...I'm a big fan of your goal to blog more both on here and on mysocalledundeath.com. But I think you should go easy on yourself with all the goals. Enjoy writing. Sure, sometimes you're in need of a goal to remind you how much you like to write but don't burn yourself out. Personally, I've kept up with your blog for a long while now and I don't mind what the topic; all your blogs are interesting. Good luck and don't be so hard on yourself, you've done great.Jadenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2362670344247251470.post-68850998816695774562011-01-09T00:16:14.028-05:002011-01-09T00:16:14.028-05:00Don't be scared of Twitter! It's like Face...Don't be scared of Twitter! It's like Facebook statuses on crack in 140 characters! (i'm on- @childofthe80s)<br /><br />I appreciate that you interact with your fans as much as you do. But I understand that you can't always- you have a family to attend to and writing to do ;)<br /><br />I love that in this day & age we can interact with authors and see that you guys are "real people" I remember when I first discovered Lois Lowry had a blog- and talked about her dog! and her yard! Honestly, I love reading about Maureen Johnson's new cat (she's on twitter and is a hoot and a half) or Laurie Halse Anderson's writing cottage. I love John & Hank Green's vlogbrothers videos. It's a little glimpse into their lives that makes me appreciate their writing more. (This is one thing I like about Facebook also- people living in far flung areas of the world sharing bits of their lives with others who are not right there.)<br /> <br />So, yes, I'd love to hear about your dog and your music suggestions and what books you've loved. Make some videos. And I wouldn't say no to reading an occasional story or two.<br /><br />Good luck with your goals this year. (I'm hoping that one of the good news items has something to do with Gen Dead.)<br /> TEAM KAREN!sandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17418406897790083901noreply@blogger.com
