Full of Fun Fridays! Mur Lafferty edition

August 22nd, 2008 by Jessika

Ok, I’ll admit it. I’ve got a serious girl crush on Mur. She’s a huge geek, with tons of the same interests I have! I mean, check out her very awesome Suicide Girls article where she talks about having a Kindle, but being very anti-DRM. *swoon*

The best part is that she actually does what I just talk about doing…she writes! Her superhero novel, Playing For Keeps, is out in print, and on August 25th, there will be a rush on the Amazon sales charts to push her up onto the NY Times “bestseller” status. It was released as a free, serialized, podiobook, and as an added bonus, you can download the full PDF of the novel, plus a new short story, for free!

(Back in March, Scott Sigler’s book Infected got the same treatment, and it did pretty well!)

If superheros aren’t your thing but zombies are, at the very least check out her podcast The Takeover.

About The Takeover

The Takeover is our audio blog describing Zombinc’s merger with a local web company. Be sure to take a listen to find out what goes on in a day-to-day office environment with zombies, humans, and a mad scientist. Why does a web design company need a mad scientist? Well, why not?

So check out her stuff, and at the least, head over to her site and tell her to kick ass on the 25th!
