"The Day the Dead Came to Show and Tell," coming soon to a classroom near you.

I am pleased to confirm that my novella (as Mira Grant) "The Day the Dead Came to Show and Tell," will be available for purchase on July 15th, 2014. So you can get ready for the Rising in style, with this all-new adventure in the world of Newsflesh.

Purchase details are here. Because Amazon is still not playing nicely with Hachette, there is no pre-order button on the Amazon website, which means the story is not at this time available for Kindle. I honestly don't know if that's going to change: I wish I did, I assume it is, but I cannot confirm. Also, I recommend against reading the summary, as it reveals some of the surprises the novella might otherwise contain for you.

I am so excited to finally tell this story. It's been lurking for a long time, and it's time the truth of what happened at Evergreen Elementary finally comes out. (This is a zombie story set in an elementary school. So, uh, yeah.)

When will you rise?

Oh, excellent.

As someone who works with small children I am delighted they get to have zombies at school. Also this comes out right before I leave for San Diego so yay something to read on the plane! Because reading more about the Rising right before SDCC 2014 is THE BEST PLAN. Yes.

Oh, absolutely. The BEST plan.
