Slang Thang

On November 16, 2021 By zachwinderlIn Uncategorized2 Comments

I'm currently reading a post-apocalyptical adventure about a young woman racing to save the wasteland from a long forgotten super computer/general from the war that destroyed the earth. The story is interesting. The blurb calls it a fusion of Mad Max and Neuromancer. The setting feels like Mad Max, but I'll have to take the …

Almost Famous

On November 9, 2021November 11, 2021 By zachwinderlIn Uncategorized1 Comment

Another convention is in the books. This time it was the Rhode Island Comic Con. I'm not sure on the exact numbers, but I can assure you it is by far the largest convention I've had the privilege of attending to date. It was huge. I had a table in the arena section, right beside …

Are Remakes Necessary

I'm torn. Last weekend, I managed to sneak away from my busy life and take my daughter out to dinner. Afterwards we went and saw the new Dune movie. Yesterday, I saw an add for the new Cowboy Bebop show that is coming out on Netflix next month. Both of these are remakes ... but …

The Highwaymen vs. Bonnie & Clyde

On October 18, 2021 By zachwinderlIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

Saturday night I couldn't sleep, so I watched The Highwaymen. It made me realize that despite being a history major in college, I knew surprisingly little about Bonnie and Clyde. I studied that time period fairly thoroughly. However, my reading took me to the big cities and to Europe. My attention was drawn to matters …

Dune: A Stroll Through a Classic

On October 12, 2021October 18, 2021 By zachwinderlIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

Covid knocked me down, so I reread Dune. I bought my copy of Frank Herbert's classic back in the mid-90's at my middle school book fair. It's a safe bet that Dune, coupled with Star Wars, established my love of science-fiction. I remember tearing through the book in the days after I bought it. It …

Another One in the Books

This weekend has come and gone. Manchester, New Hampshire was a beautiful city. The Granite State Comic-Con was a blast. I got to sell some books and talk to hordes of lovely folks about Atom & Go, the writing process, and the joys of being an author. In addition to meeting tons of interesting people …

Once More Unto the Breach

On September 10, 2021 By zachwinderlIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

It's that time again. Mornings are cool. The kids are walking to school. The house is quiet. Coffee scents the air. It's time to dive into writing with renewed energy. After taking the month off to spend time with the family, I'm ready to pick up the tale of Atom & Go. It is funny …

The Coming of the Con

On August 23, 2021August 23, 2021 By zachwinderlIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

Two things on the agenda today: promote Trinity and hype the Con. I'd like to say Trinity is selling like hotcakes, but more than half my sales are digital, so I guess they are akin to selling like savory pictures of hotcakes. Regardless, things are going well. Here's a quick excerpt from the book to …

Humanity in Characters

On August 16, 2021 By zachwinderlIn Uncategorized1 Comment

Recently I sat down to coffee with a friend of mine and after some polite chit-chat about zombies, a life without electricity, and the stupidity of youth he informed me that he was rereading Genesis and he realized that he didn't like Atom. I stared at him over my coffee cup, uncertain as to my …
