Andy Zach Wins NaNoMo!

Dear Andyzach.net blog readers,

It’s true. Andy Zach Wins NaNoMo! I’ve been away for blogging, slaving over a hot keyboard to write 50,000 words in November for NaNoMo, the National Novel Month contest where writers are challenged to write 50,000 words during the month of November. This is how I wrote Zombie Turkeys in November 2015 and My Undead Mother-in-law in November 2016. Both times I fell short of 50,000 words.  This November I made it and wrote 50,000 words!

But …

Andy Zach Wins NaNoMo: A Pyrrhic Victory

Why was it a pyrrhic victory?

A Pyrrhic victory (/ˈpɪrɪk/ ( listen) PIRR-ik) is a victory that inflicts such a devastating toll on the victor that it is tantamount to defeat. Someone who wins a Pyrrhic victory has been victorious in some way, though the heavy toll negates a true sense of achievement or profit.

What was my terrible loss?

Losing contact with you, my beloved blog readers.

Now, coming up next:

Let’s turn this terrible loss into a terrific gain for you.

How You Can Turn Defeat Into Victory for Your Gain

Simply contact me and get a free short story, A Phoenix Tale. It’s my never-before-told story of how I got my first pet phoenix.

You didn’t know I had five pet phoenixes at my home? Here’s my official bio:

With his first book, “Zombie Turkeys” Andy blazed new ground in paranormal humor. The second book in his Life After Life Chronicles, “My Undead Mother-in-law” is now on sale for Amazon Kindle and Createspace print edition. 

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 Ph.D. 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.
