Lock your doors, board up your windows.

The hordes of the furry undead are coming. No — They’re already here.

A book with ten tales of undead creatures of the furry kind, written by some pretty fantastic furry authors, is now available for you to sink your claws and teeth into! Each one puts a delectable and squishy spin on the zombie fiction genre.

That’s right you beautiful readers=. The Howling Dead (edited by yours truly) has been released from the testing labs in which it was born!

The links to the anthology’s official page will be these next three lines! If you like my work, or the works of the other authors that are featured in this anthology, please share the links around as well!

The Physical Copy of The Howling Dead, edited by me, can be found through this line of pretty blue underlined text!

A bundle of the Physical Copy and Digitial Copy of The Howling Dead can be found at this other pretty blue underlined link!

And this lovely link will take you to just the digital copy of The Howling Dead!

I had a lot of fun with working for this anthology. Whether it was being able to read through each story in this anthology, coordinating with the writers, or just writing my own story for this project; I had a blast.

Speaking of having a blast, my offering to this collection of undead tales is a little story called “Tip Your Damn Delivery Drivers.” My story features a tired rabbit working as a delivery driver in a post-pandemic world (with zombies, of course) who has to drive an order to a group of guys who — surprise, surprise — have a history of not tipping him.

The other nine authors in this book — Aldous Husky & A. Kita, Adam Woods, Bruno Schafer, Faolan, Keaton Jenkinson, Packwolf Lupestripe, Renard Avec-Histoire, Rob Macwolf, and Sky McKinnon — each had such good and different takes on zombies and how they’d work in a furry universe.

Obviously, the blurb on the back of the book — which you’ll all see soon — has a good sneak peek of what you’ll see. But I wanted to write it again. Aside for the normal zombie tropes and gore, this anthology also includes the working class, outer space, a distaste for capitalism, a zoo of undead animals, trick-or-treating, LGBTQ+ folks, survivor’s guilt, and — only if you stay in line — a pizza party on us!

Doesn’t that sound exciting?

But seriously! Thank you to all nine of the writers involved in this anthology for your stories and your patience! Thank you to Cedric G. Bacon for allowing me to take this on in the beginning and to Thurston Howl, Izzy, and all the other folks at Fenris Publishing for taking on the project and helping bring it to its completion. And thanks to @Nikraccoom.bsky.social for doing the super cool cover art!

So please! Remember to grab yourself a copy or two! And let us know how you liked our stories!
