Flag 9

It was a phone call with my girlfriend Margaret and an episode of AMC's The Walking Dead (pick any one) that set Drew on his journey. 'I'm going to write a Zombie book,' I announced as we said goodnight (sure you will, she was probably thinking). Setting the phone down, I opened my laptop and stared at the stark whiteness of a fresh Microsoft Word document. My motivation wasn't any particular episode of that miniseries but the culmination of all the genre books, movies, and TV shows that I had enjoyed since I was a kid. I remember looking forward to a local access show that came on every Saturday, Commander USA's Groovy Movies. It came on after cartoons. What you got was a pair of the worst horror thrillers produced, hosted by a middle aged dad in a superhero outfit that did magic tricks during commercial breaks. I couldn't get enough and just like my love of candy has never changed, neither has my interest in creepy stories. That being said, I set out to do something a little different in a new environment. I wanted to freshen up the genre with a tale of a disrupted solo-circumnavigation attempt. At first, I tried to guide Drew but ultimately he was the one that took me on a trip. For that I am in his debt. My hope is that you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Thank you.

The trouble continues on Amelia Island...So where did Shark go? We find out as the story follows him in the pursuit of Carlos. The companion book to Flag 9, Shark's Tale picks up where he decides to head off on his own. Fueled by an amalgam of emotions and a steady flow of alcohol, Shark quickly finds his past catching up to him and must confront what actually does drive him. Sometimes proceeding with reckless abandon pays off, sometimes not... And throw love into the mix.

For twelve year old Zach Moore, moving to Amelia Island was supposed to be a fresh start, a chance at a new life. But across from his new school, there is something in the woods. A legendary witch resides there. Teaming up with new found friends, they go to investigate, and soon discover that messing around with the Wiccademous can have very unexpected consequences.
