Authors, Writers, Publishers, and Book Readers

I have to say that this was an interesting project. If you listened in to my blogtalk radio show The G-Zone the last time Big Daddy Abel was on, and you read this digital short, you will see that part of our conversation influenced the ending. That part of our conversation made it into the finished product. Amazingly less than 24 hours after our conversation this digital short story was on its way in cyberspace waiting to be made public for all to consume and enjoy. Thus far, after a few short days, we have eight five star reviews, not too bad. For those of you that don’t know him Big Daddy Abel is the author of the highly rated Open Mic series, okay the number 3 highest rated in the humor/essay Kindle Category. Not too shabby. Before I go any further though here is what is between the virtual covers:

“ Trestle Press’ next installment in The Author’s Lab/Collaboration Series is here! Big Daddy Abel, author of The Top 20 Kindle sensation digital short story Open Mic Humor Series has teamed up with the blogger of Gelati’s Scoop/blogtalk radio host of The G-ZONE, Giovanni “The G-Man” Gelati , to bring you a zombie/ horror/comedy story the likes of which has not been seen in modern fiction. What has happened to Mrs.G’s nose? How do these two good doers save the masses from the dreaded zombies? Do they? Drop the coin on this and find out.

Big Daddy Abel is the author of the highly acclaimed Open Mic Series of humorous digital shorts. Here is a little more on the man himself:

“Big Daddy” Abel wears his heart on his sleeve, and has his “real” heart in the right place. He lays himself emotionally naked for us to read, ponder and absorb. This is real, at times all too real. Be prepared; guard yourself, as “Big Daddy” takes you for a “real” ride into his real mind, real heart and real soul.

Hi.

Introductions may be in order, yes? Only proper thing to do I think. I am Big Daddy Abel, a singer, guitar player, & entertainer. Usually my "job" is to entertain. Getting people to laugh, dance and sing and just have a good fun time. However, at times... my mind goes beyond that. It goes a little deeper and sometimes, as I've been told, a little TOO deep, (I used to be a school teacher in my former life. Shhh! Don't tell anyone.) Thank you for giving/sharing your time here with "my thoughts". I hope you feel something positive on the other end of it all.

One of Big Daddy Abel favorite quotes “"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future."

Here are some of his favorite bands/musicians: Van Halen (1976-1984), The Beatles, Aerosmith (1973-1989), The Black Crowes, Prince, Seal, Led Zeppelin, Butch Walker/The Marvelous 3, Stevie Wonder, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Alice in Chains, Love/Hate, Buckcherry, The Cure, George Clinton, Mozart, Electric Mayhem, The Soggy Bottom Boys, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fishbone, Too Much Joy, Beethoven, the kid down the street learning guitar.”

The idea of The Author’s Lab/Collaboration is for me to get authors out of their comfort zone, to get them to have some fun, try something different and to produce the best results possible. Thus far I think I have succeeded. The first installment of the series I did with Vincent Zandri, Down Low- Dead. Great stuff, The Jersey Shore Has Eyes is a great follow up to it. I really don’t think Zombies and comedy have been done like this; it made for an excellent combination. Big Daddy Abel was able to put an intense and fun spin on the whole thing and tie everything together nicely at the end. I personally am extremely proud of my association with the project. My game plan is to weave elements of each story throughout the series. Right now I am working with Thomas White author of Justice Rules on G.S.I. (Gelati’s Scoop Investigations) Psychotic Detectives, Benjamin Sobieck author of Cleansing Eden ( Who Whacked the Blogger) , Thad Brown author of the Smoking Gun Sisterhood series ( Thad and The G-Man’s Most Awesome Adventure), and H.R. Toye author of the Debtor’s Chip series (Give Us Your Living…Now!).

Fun you bet, and it is all for you to download for less than a buck ($.99) an installment. Trust me on this, these are fun: to write, to read, and to enjoy. Pick up one today, we will make more; I guarantee it. 

Oh I almost forgot, I asked Big Daddy Abel if he wanted to add a quote or two to this, his reply:

“Tell them – Yeah…What he said!”
