Instead of a Christmas Giveaway

Bret Jordan - Author & Freelance Artist

Instead of a Christmas Giveaway this year we have decided to do something a little different.   We wanted to give back to the writing community.  After a lot of thinking we decided to select one member from our community who will receive the following:

A mentorship from an HWA member for a completed novel
The mentor will help this person polish their manuscript before submitting it to Graveside Tales.

After stepping back and taking a long look at all our family here at Graveside Tales we have chosen Bret Jordan to be this years receipent.  Bret has done so much for Graveside Tales and without him I have no idea where we would be.  Bret dedicated a lot time doing artwork and several other projects.  He was the first person to take us up on writing an online eSerial with his novel Plague.  Bret’s outstanding attitude, drive, dedication and determination is exactly what we look for.

His mentor will be HWA member and community member Rio Youers author of Everdead and Endtimes.

Plague by Bret Jordan

Story Synopsis

Renier is a port city that stands as a glorious gem on the edge of the kingdom.  The people are justly ruled by their beloved Duke with the assistance of a benevolent wizard and a self-involved priest.  Within twenty-four hours everything changes as a small group of strange lepers enter the port and cause a mysterious and deadly illness to rage through the city, killing most of the residents.  Violent illness and gruesome death isn’t the end of the horror for the residents of Renier.  Not by a long shot, as thousands of dead bodies rise from the cobblestone streets in search of living prey.  Sword and sorcery battle against an unstoppable hunger as the few living residents try and escape the walls of an undead nightmare.

“Bret Jordan’s Plague blends dark fantasy and zombie horror with genuinely chilling results. You won’t be disappointed – get hooked on this serial!”
~David Dunwoody, author of Empire

“Bret Jordan has created an intriguing medieval world where blood & guts zombie mayhem is delivered with the brutal edge of a sword, not the barrel of a .45. Read it – you’ll dig it!”

~Vince Churchill author of The Dead Shall Inherit the Earth & The Blackest Heart

  1. Gregory L Hall Said,

    I can’t think of a person in the horror circles who is more deserving of a gift like this than Bret.

    He is not only a talented artist and writer, he is one of the most generous people you’d ever want to meet. But mostly I think it’s funny when Texans start talking with British accents.

    Oh bloody hell, have a spot of tea and wrangle some jerky, y’all!

    Rio is gonna mess him up.
