"The Cough Is Loose" is on Kindle!
The full novella is now live and fully updated on Amazon Kindle (with X-Ray features enabled). The proof copy of the paperback just landed on the porch, too!
First, a big thank you to all the Substack readers who have been following the Bougie Apocalypse serial from the beginning. As promised, the complete serial is (and will remain) free here for you. You got the raw, chapter-by-chapter ride.
If you’ve enjoyed Jack, Raych, the heirloom beans, the percolator, and the stubborn refusal to let the Cough turn us all into savages… the final, revised, and expanded edition is now available on Kindle.
There are over 4000 more words in the full novella than in the serialized chapters, in case you need some convincing to go check it out. It’s available as a Kindle purchase and via Kindle Unlimited.
One early reader left what might be my favorite comment yet:
“Looks good. I was able to read it without rolling my eyes and getting annoyed.”
I’ll take that as high praise in the zombie apocalypse genre.
Launch Week Special:
I’ve dropped the Kindle price to $0.99 for the next 7 days (regular price $2.99 after that).
Kindle link (on sale now): The Cough Is Loose
The paperback edition drops July 1. It’s 5.5 x 8.5 trim size, which is the closest you can realistically get to pulp paperback, with a black & white interior and white pages. Exactly what the end of the world ordered.
Real coffee. Heirloom beans. Frying pan justice.
Stay Human.
