Did You Miss It? Andy Zach Author Appearance

Did you  miss the Andy Zach Author Appearance? I know you’re crying in your beer, but take take solace: I’ve recorded everything right here!

But before I tell you anything about what I said, let me tell you about the event: SciFan Magazine Relaunch. For some reason, Amazon banned the magazine for a while; now it’s back on Amazon.

You can buy the magazine on Kindle by clicking the image above.

What Was Andy Zach Doing At the Launch Event?

Let me tell you.

The launch ran from 9 AM to 6 PM EST and they magazine had authors discussing their work and the SciFan Magazine every half hour. That’s eighteen authors, one of which was me, Andy Zach.

So what did Andy Zach cover in his half hour of public fame?

Drew Cordell introduced me:

Andy’s first post was:

First, congratulations on SciFan Magazine’s relaunch! https://www.amazon.com/SciFanTM-Magazine-Febr…/…/ref=sr_1_2… That certainly deserves a party. Thanks to SciFan Magazine and Richard Mulder for allowing me to post about my comic zombie world. I downloaded the February issue and am eagerly reading it. I suggest you do the same!
Now, a little more about me and my book.

My full Author Bio

Andy Zach was born Anastasius Zacharias, in Greece. His parents were both zombies. Growing up, he loved animals of all kinds. After moving to the United States as a child, in high school he won a science fair by bringing toads back from suspended animation. Before turning to fiction, Andy published his PhD thesis “Methods of Revivification for Various Species of the Kingdom Animalia” in the prestigious JAPM, Journal of Paranormal Medicine. Andy, in addition to being the foremost expert on paranormal animals, enjoys breeding phoenixes. He lives in Illinois with his five phoenixes.

And here is the book blurb on Zombie Turkeys:

I killed a Zombie Turkey. Now, will it stay dead?

Sam Melvin, an underachieving e-reporter from a small town, changes forever when he meets turkeys that won’t stay dead. You can shoot ’em, chop ’em, burn ’em—they come back stronger. The undead plague of poultry spreads uncontrollably, rocking the whole country. As Sam tracks down the zombie turkeys and how to eradicate them, his editor, Lisa Kambacher, nags him to turn his stories and expenses in on time.

During their years of working together, Lisa has mellowed from bitchy into an irascible pinchpenny. Lisa snipes at Sam for plebeian writing but uses her intelligence to pursue the lucrative carnivorous turkey story. Sam and Lisa ricochet across the landscape, tracking turkeys and fleeing the bloodthirsty hordes. Careening from shell-shocked grocery store owners fighting turkeys crawling out of refrigerators, to machine-gunning turkey farmers, to secret militia, Sam and Lisa doggedly report. Throughout the turkey apocalypse, they dare ravaged cities, plow knee deep in gore and corpses, and upload streams of zombie turkey video news to the world.

With paranoid militias clashing with the federal government and unkillable turkeys, Sam and Lisa doubt their ability to survive. Sam and Lisa have no superpowers. If you have a heart condition or lack humor, you should not read Zombie Turkeys, no matter how much you want to find out what happens.

Please ask questions! I’ll answer them when I post again in about five minutes.
