“Empty Bodies”
Book One of the ‘Empty Bodies’ Series
The end is coming February 3rd, 2015!*
Horror author Zach Bohannon brings you book one of the Empty Bodies series, a suspenseful page-turner that pits the survivors of the new world against both a supernatural horde, rising from the dead to hunt them, and against each other.
Follow three people from different walks of life as they fight through the fallout of the rapture and adapt to the new world.
A warehouse forklift operator who wakes up from a lunchtime nap to find his co-workers killing each other…
A traveling sales representative who boards a plane from hell…
And a front desk clerk who fights to escape a hotel tucked away in the Smoky Mountains when the vacant bodies begin to rise…
Perfect for any fan of post-apocalyptic horror, dystopian science fiction, and zombies!
Do you like The Walking Dead, The Stand, I Am Legend, Dawn of the Dead, or World War Z?
Then you’ll love Empty Bodies!

The Power of Planning
I’ve spent some time over the last few days working on my production schedule for 2015. I’m through the first part of June and, I must say, I am excited for what 2015 has to offer.
My time losing over 100 pounds and working as a personal trainer taught me a lot. Many people want to do things, but fail to set goals and plan. They say things like “I want to lose weight” or “I want to save more money”. While it’s great to want to do these things, you need something tangible to aim at.
Instead of saying something like “I want to run more”, a more tangible goal would be “I want to run 10 miles a week” and then mark 3 days on your weekly calendar that you will commit to running 4 miles. Make yourself accountable and stick to it!
I am going into this year knowing that I want to release 5 books that will each be around 50,000 words. Using a production template for each book, I calculate that I can release a book that size about every 65 days. So I have every day until June scheduled out so that I can hit those targets.
Will I hit every deadline? Probably not. But that’s okay. A lot of this is a learning process for me. I am still finding my stride and what works best for me as an author-entrepreneur.
The important thing is that I have something to aim at. And like the great Zig Ziglar said, “If you aim at nothing, you’ll hit it every time.”
So what do you have planned for 2015? I’d love to hear your comments below.
