Goodreads asked Better Hero Army:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Better Hero Army The entire Plagued States of America series was pretty well planned out the moment I got the idea. I always wanted to have three sanctioned zombie hunting and rehabilitation control points (Biter's Hill, Biter's Island, and Biter's Bend) plus two or three unsanctioned ones. The first three books in the series were always a progression through these places. I also wanted a finale that happened outside of these three places, so the series will be 4 books at a minimum.

The idea for the books, however, came when my mother had surgery to remove one of her salivary glands. She looked gruesome, and it inspired me to write the first book in her honor.
