Dead Love: Zombies in Japan … No Better Time

Posted by on Oct 30, 2010 in Rants and Raves | 1 comment

True, it couldn’t be a better time to be a zombie … but author Linda Watanabe McFerrin is a die-hard fan with a dark history that goes back to her childhood. I think this interview by Scott James, author of Soma and The Sower, is dead on. Here’s what he uncovers about Dead Love for The Bay Citizen. None of our ghastly gang is surprised that it hit #3 in the publication’s popularity index.

Beats the poorly researched work of blow-hard reviewers who fancy themselves experts on matters they sample briefly, research lightly, and scarcely tolerate. Sssssss.

    Thanks Erin. Congrats to Dead Love author Linda Watanabe McFerrin for the fine #3 placing in The Bay Citizen's Hot List. The interview questions were penetrating, her answers revealing, personal and bold. With her craftmanship and intense personal experiences, it is no wonder that Dead Love (and you!) is such a fun ride for the conscious reader. Kudos to the comments re b-h reviewers, wherever they reside.
