I’ve put off announcing it for quite some time. It seemed like the release date was so far off, there wasn’t much point, lol.
And then the original release date was postponed another two months, so I waited a bit longer.
And that release date was changed once again, so I thought it wise to hold off, just to be sure.
But now that I can see it in the “Coming Soon” section, I suppose it’s safe to say…
“THE LAST MAN ON EARTH” will be released by SAMHAIN PUBLISHING on April 4, 2008.
I still have one last round of edits. But I loved writing this story. It’s like a sexy, tongue-in-cheek horror film, and I ignored a tiny “Rule for Writing Romance” or two in doing it—which made it even more fun.
(Can you say “problems with authority”?). :razz:
It doesn’t have a cover yet, but the posting is here (subject to change).
The blurb reads as follows:
“This is NOT a test…”
Iris Foley and Russell Carr are old friends who share everything. As they indulge in a marathon viewing of old, campy horror films on a stormy Halloween night, they are suddenly faced with the very real possibility that something has happened to the outside world.
Just as the last gasp of the Emergency Broadcast System issues a dire warning, they are plunged into isolation and darkness. Naturally, they decide to do what any frightened, civic-minded young couple would do.
They decide to have sex.
Now if only old fears, a surprise adversary, and the Apocalypse wouldn’t keep getting in their way…

With a tip ‘o the hat to PBW. Without her E-Book Challenge, I never would have subbed this at all, and this story would’ve sat on my hard drive, wasting away. :waving:
