Nerdery Week: Day 1

Well, it’s better late then never, right? I was in Madison, Wisconsin all weekend for a short getaway from life here in ol’ Woodbury. Anyway, no one cares about that. You know as well as I know that this is NERDERY WEEK here at Tappity Tappity and other blogs around the country/world/block.

Here, if you will, is a shot where ‘all the magic happens.’ Yep. This is my desk.


While I won’t spend this entire post detailing everything there, I wanted to point out some items of interest and see if you can find ’em. Think of it like those ‘Hidden Pictures’ things like they’ve got in Highlights magazine for kids. You know, except for awesome.

See if you can find:

– the fridge
– the short bus
– Boba Fett getting pulled into the Sarlaac Pit
– Goodhalo manuscript
– The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks
– 2 cans of Caffeine Free Diet Coke (that’s how I roll)
– 1 green slipper

That’s all I’m givin’ you for today/tonight Tappers. Think of it as a peek into the nerdy, nerdy nerdery of your favorite zombie children’s book author. Tomorrow we’ll peel away another layer and take you deeper into the place where you can feel 12 again…even if you’re 35.

Can’t get enough nerdery action? Check out some of these nerderies!

More as they come in.

Hint: This is where you, dear reader come in. Shoot a quick shot of your place of blogging/nerding/writing/whatever, slap it on your blog place or LiveJournal and let us know about it. It’s going to be beyond cool.

Speaking of beyond cool, check out this picture I snapped whilst in Madison, WI. This was in a Ragstock on State Street. I’m sure the woman changing in the room two doors down was wondering what I was up to.


Don’t mind me, lady. I’m just documenting the zombie apocalypse.
