TEST

Doug's Car

While I was working on ZOMBIE, I came upon this car in a parking lot that looked exactly like I imagined Doug the Zombie's car looked. The car is one of three characters who will be back for the next book set in the ZOMBIE world, tentatively titled PURPLE WISH and due out next year:

New Interview with Authors Unleashed

This is one my favorite interviews ever, covering everything from food to storage units to The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Tell us a little bit about either your latest or upcoming release. If you could only tell your readers one thing about the story that had to convince us to buy the book, what would it be?

I KISSED A ZOMBIE AND I LIKED IT is a satire on the paranormal romance genre. If you can’t stand TWILIGHT, you’ll love it. But even if you LOVE TWILIGHT, you might still dig this one.

New book announced!

adamselzer.com has announced a new book set in the same world as I KISSED A ZOMBIE! The book will take place a few years after the events of ZOMBIE; during those few years, vampires have moved to Des Moines in droves, lured to the city by the promise of jobs in the insurance industry (which really suits the dead). In the as-yet-untitled book, a girl named Emily Newport will just DIE if she doesn't go to prom - literally. Her fairy godmother (a short, scruffy guy with a gravelly voice who wears a tattered overcoat and a fedora) is sort of a jerk.
