FREE EBOOK BY ZACHARY ADAMS CALLED What Looks Back
What Looks Back. A mixture of horror and fantasy. Where a foodie can't stop eating, and an EMT meets a patient unlike any other. Where a psychiatric has a taste for red meat, and elsewhere a statue greets the end of time. A fantasy that delves into the underworld, and another into the cyberworld. Psychological manipulation, one attempt resisted, another willingly accepted. Where late night autopsies prove the existence of the metaphysical, and an encounter with a gypsy creates monsters. A collection of short stories from the mind of Zachary Adams.

This is cool: The NY Times has a blog about Grammar
It's cooler than it sounds. http://afterdeadline.blogs.nytimes.com/. Here's an example post from a few days ago:
"A colleague points out one common construction that can almost always be improved by being shortened. It’s this formula:
"The [noun] is an [adjective] one.
"In most cases, both idiom and efficiency favor this instead:
"The [noun] is [adjective].
"So, for instance, “The answer is simple” is preferable to “The answer is a simple one.” Not only is the second version more verbose, but it ends with the meaningless “one” rather than the adjective “simple,” which deserves the emphasis."

Not the murderer of Holly Bobo
If you found this page while trying find the murderer Zachary Adams, you are in the wrong place. I was nowhere near Tennessee nor have I ever been. If you are looking for more information on the case, I recommend going here. I recommend, however, taking your mind off such troubling events and buying my book, The Harbinger Break, here instead.

Excerpt of Jane Kelsey's Review of The Harbinger Break
"What I love about the book is that it’s not a story about them (aliens), it’s a story about us and the conflicts of a new world. A world who faces dangers coming from far away, from a far better prepared civilization. It’s the dilemma of the man put face to face with a situation which he has no exit but to act, one way or another. It’s the blood, tears and sweat of those willing to die or kill for their country and a passion for survival. The Harbinger Break exposes the fears, beliefs and primal instincts of the human."

We met at a conference on Biscayne. He goes by Bird. He's seen some shit. Over 4 am cups of coffee in an EDM hookah bar with $12 truffle fries, we became fast friends. You might like him, although not many people do.

The Harbinger Break excerpt
"In the sky, high above Winter
Oaks and even higher, above Jacksonville, above Florida, through silver clouds
and above the United States, above North America, into the atmosphere and
higher still until the cold Northern Hemisphere emanated like a glowing
television in an empty room at night–a galactic silence was broken. A satellite
ticked and beeped, and a photograph of an alien civilization about 2,100
light-seconds from Earth downloaded line by line into a 100 by 100 yard cement
room with a hedge-maze of stacked processors. This photograph, with a
resolution that would've been mediocre for thirty-year-old technology, revealed
rectangles. Laced sporadically between these rectangles were dots. A less
advanced species than humanity might've thought these dots aliens–but those
employed by NASA were certain that those dots were not aliens, but their
automobile equivalent."

Quote from The Harbinger Break
"'Then there's you Sam,' he continued. 'Content, complacent, meek–and when the universe blinks and your life flickers it'll be as if you never existed. I can't imagine a worse fate. I feel sorry for you Sam, I really do...'"
