The Secret Apocalypse Book 8

Been getting a lot of questions about when book 8 is going to be released.

All I can say is... I'm working on it right now and it's still a little while off yet.

Haven't got a specific release date because it's still in progress.

And I'm still working on a title... I've got a few in mind. But it's hard to narrow it down.

I've also been working hard on another project (Wasteland Wonderland) at the same time as I've been writing book 8... which is another reason for the delay. Probably, definitely the main reason...

Anyway, wish me luck. Hopefully i'll have Book 8 finished sooner rather than later.

The world we knew is gone. There is no going back. 

The Oz virus cannot be stopped. It has spread right around the globe, across nations, across continents. There is no cure. No anti-virus. No hope. 

There is no way back. 

In a matter of months civilization has fallen. The world’s militaries and governments have failed their people. 

Rebecca and her friends are stuck in a desert, a wasteland, but they are slowly coming to the realization that they will need to live in a new world. A world where you fear the dead, the living. 

A world where absolutely no one can be trusted… 

Land of Dust and Bones is a Post-Apocalyptic Zombie Thriller. It is the seventh book in the Secret Apocalypse series.

Hey whats up...

I forgot to mention that earlier in the month I released the first secret apocalypse novella - The Lost Journal of Private Kenji Yoshida.

Here's the cover...

Here's the synopsis...

The Lost Journal of Private Kenji Yoshida – A Secret Apocalypse Novella.

This is the journal of Private Kenji Yoshida of the U.S. Marine Corp. It details his experiences in the field with the Oz virus and in particular the initial outbreak at the small outback town of Woomera - the beginnings of what is now known as the Secret Apocalypse.

It also details his relationship with Rebecca Robinson, the only known survivor of the Oz virus.

It is a story of survival, sacrifice and discovery. It is a story of a boy in love with a girl.

It is the story of a man's journey into hell.

The Lost Journal of Private Kenji Yoshida is set in the weeks leading up to the events that take place in The Secret Apocalypse.

It is approximately 30,000 words in length or 120 pages.

***

I'm planning on releasing Part 2 of Kenj's journal later in the year. Along with another Secret Apocalypse novella - Test Subject Zero.

These will come out around the same time as Where The Dead Men Lie (book 3 in the series) comes out.

Excited much? I know I am.

The Lost Journal of Private Kenji Yoshida

Coming soon!

It's a 30,000 word novella (approximately 120 pages).

It's an excerpt from Kenji's journal of the weeks leading up to the events in the Secret Apocalypse.

Did ya'll hear?

So apparently I'm the worst blogger in the history of the blogosphere! Crazy huh?
I get a certificate and everything.

Also, I just released my very second ebook on Kindle.

Check it.

And here's the description/blurb.

THE 6TH LEVEL – Book 2 in the Secret Apocalypse series.

Rebecca Robison survived the Oz virus and escaped from Australia.

She was the only one to get out.

She was forced to leave her friends behind. She thought she had left them for dead.

She was wrong.

Two days ago Rebecca heard an SOS from her friends. Kenji, Jack, Maria.

They are alive.

They are hiding in the middle of Sydney. They are surrounded by the infected.

Now Rebecca must find the courage to go back into hell. Right back into the apocalypse.

The 6th Level is a Young Adult Post-Apocalyptic Zombie adventure. It is the second book in The Secret Apocalypse series and is approximately 82,000 words.

***

Yep.
And Book 3 WHERE THE DEAD MEN LIE will be released later in year.

I'm pretty effing excited.

1st Draft for 'Secret Apocalypse' part 2 is COMPLETE

And it feels so good.

I can't wait to finalise it.

Here's a sneak peek...

I think the thing that freaked people out the most is that the virus robbed a person of their humanity - it took away their soul.  No one wants to believe that death is absolute, that there is no after life. People want to believe that their souls live on forever in heaven or wherever. But the Oz virus confronted people with their mortality, with death. Not just death of the body, but death of the soul, the spirit. Complete and absolute. And that scared the hell out of people. Scared the hell out of me.

How 'bout this weather...

So it's 40 freakin degrees again here in my part of Australia.

And in Queensland last night a category 5 cyclone smashed into the coast. That's right, category 5. They don't make 'em any bigger. It was something like 500km's in diameter. It was an absolute monster. Queensland is having a rough start to the year.

But yeah, its been about 40 degrees for the past week or so. All this hot weather and beach time is making it difficult for me to concentrate on writing. But i think I'm almost sort of half way to being half way done on the sequel to 'the secret apocalypse'. Does that even make sense?

I can't wait to finish it. It's a blast to write... there's so much action and tension.

I also can't wait to re-release Dead Forest under it's new name. I'm thinking of combing the second volume with the first to make it novel length as I'm sort of not too sure about novellas. But that's the awesome thing with self-pubbing ebooks - you have complete control. These decisions are up to me. It's fantastic.
And i still get a huge rush whenever i sell a book. It's the greatest feeling in the world, the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

And now i'm off to the beach. I mean, i'm off to write a few thousand words.
