Happy Birthday Lizzie Borden!

Today is Lizzie Borden's Birthday!

The Fall River, Mass. accused murderess was born July 19, 1860.


happy birthday lizzie borden!





It was never fully proven that Lizzie, a 32-year-old spinster and Sunday School teacher, committed the crime.
 No one else was arrested or charged.
 The crime was never solved. 

Until now.

What if Lizzie did do it...because she had no other choice? 

The "proof"... is in the crime and the autopsy photos. I'll explain more soon... 

My viewpoint is coming soon in: 





 NEWS!!!    The Release Date is....

SEPT. 13th! 
(Andrew Borden's Birthday!) 

** Cover Reveal this week! Did you see the preview? Come back for more this week!

Update: Lizzie Borden, #Zombie Hunter, #zombie book


www.cverstraete.com


An update on Lizzie Borden, Zombie Hunter:

* Just sent the round 2 edits back to the editor --- and he included the last corrections I added, signed off on it, and sent it on to the publisher! So next is the final read on their end, and formatting and such.

* The cover is about ready except to add the blurbs!!! Waiting, waiting, waiting on more reviews to come in!!!

* It is ALMOST READY!!! Are you as excited as I am???  


Wow!!! Hard to believe how fast this is moving along now! This process actually started more than a year ago when I finished the book, sent it out, did more revisions and sent it out some more.

I subbed the manuscript again this past March and it got accepted at the end of March/early April.  By most publishing standards unless you're self-pubbing, this is a pretty quick turn-around, for which I'm glad. Most won't get your book out for a full year after acceptance.  I've been living and working on this story a long time, and I can't wait to finally see it come to life (or un-life, if you will. ha!)  

And yes... I am noodling around a sequel; have to firm the idea up and do some outlining now that this first one is nearing the finish line. I really do want to continue the story--you'll see why when you read it!

* Stay tuned for upcoming details, a cover reveal, publishing date, more blog posts, a launch party, oh, so much to come!!!

WOW, IT'S ALMOST REAL!!! 


About the Book:

Every family has its secrets…

One hot August morning in 1892, Lizzie Borden picked up an ax and murdered her father and stepmother. Newspapers claim she did it for the oldest of reasons: family conflicts, jealousy and greed.

Thrust into a horrific world where the walking dead are part of a shocking conspiracy to infect not only Fall River, Massachusetts, but also the world beyond, Lizzie battles to protect her sister, Emma, and her hometown from nightmarish ghouls and the evil forces controlling them.

#1LineWed Provocative Lizzie Borden, #Zombie Hunter

It's #1LineWed - 1 Line Wednesday -  again, so I thought I'd share a more "provocative" line from my upcoming book, Lizzie Borden, Zombie Hunter by C.A. Verstraete.



 I say that as if you've seen any of the movies like the 1975 TV film, The Legend of Lizzie Borden starring Elizabeth Montgomery (now re-released on DVD), or heard the rumors, you know what was said about Lizzie - that if she committed the murders she must've been naked, or was she perhaps parading around the house near-naked as what happened to the bloody clothing?


Well, here's a "little" glimpse at my take from Lizzie Borden, Zombie Hunter: (see new 2nd edition & new cover!)


Goosebumps broke out on her arms as she hurried back into the kitchen to tidy up, and not just because she stood there scandalously clad only in her undergarments.
