Year of the Cannibal Zombie
A Zombie Here, There, and Everywhere: When I announced on my other blog that this was the Year of the Cannibal Zombie, I had no idea how my proclamation would effect other artists and thinkers. Today another cannibal zombie movie is hitting the big-screen,
Grindhouse, from Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. I'm just tearing up right now to think that famous directors are listening to my suggestions about the artistic value of cannibal zombies.
Bad Vampire Poetry Writing Contest with Prizes: Do you think you can write bad poetry? Have you always suspected that you're a real hack at heart, with the passion of an IRS auditor? If you've got the confidence that you can write some poetry that really stinks up the joint, please enter my First Annual Bad Vampire Poetry Contest. The winner receives a signed galley of
Midnight Brunch and an item of Easter candy (whatever I find in the clearance bin). I've extended the deadline until next Friday. You may enter a sonnet, haiku, or limerick. Send it to me at marta @ martaacosta. com (but take out the extra spaces). Good luck to the worst writer!
New Website Design: check out my
new website design by my friend Tracy McBride of
Woodpecker Feather Designs. Very vampirey, right? Please
visit me at MySpace, too.
Have a great weekend!
