They survived the cold war. But can they survive a 'smart' toaster?

When the President of Monty sends a ruthless reporter, a cynical high school bully, and a confused drifter thirty-nine years into the future, he expects a tactical report. Instead, he gets three 80s icons lost in a wireless world of viral trends and “cancel culture.”

HEY ZOMBIES! THANKS FOR NOTHING is a nostalgic, laugh-out-loud satire about what happens when the “Me Generation” meets the “Everything is Smart” generation.

Hey zombies thanks for nothing

One wants a scoop. One wants a snack. One wants to be anywhere else.

In Hey Zombies! Thanks for Nothing, three unsuspecting souls from 1987 are accidentally catapulted into the chaos of 2026. It’s a world they don’t recognize, featuring an unlikely trio: a hard-hitting reporter looking for a scoop, a cynical 11th grader who was “over it” before he even arrived, and a local ‘hobo’ who only ended up in the time-traveling convention center because he followed the scent of free appetizers. If you enjoy laughing until your neighbors consider calling a wellness check, this is the book you’ve been waiting for. It’s polished, it’s poignant, and it’s definitely worth the sleep you’ll lose binge-reading it. It’s nostalgic, biting, and a reminder that while the technology changes, human absurdity is timeless. It is, quite simply, her best work yet.

Wayven Pienaar, bio

The Master of the Silver Lining

Wayven Pienaar

Some people see a glass half full; Wayven Pienaar sees a glass that’s about to fall over in a way that’s statistically improbable and objectively hilarious.

With the ability to find the punchline in a power outage or the irony in a root canal, Wayven has spent her career proving that if life gives you lemons, you should probably check if they’re expired—and then write a bestseller about it.

But even this funny girl has her limits. If you want to see Wayven’s ‘funny’ side evaporate instantly, just try knocking on her front door without a 48-hour notice. Her Achilles Heel is a trifecta of modern miseries: she has zero tolerance for unexpected guests, an even lower bar for ungrateful people, and a soul-deep loathing for long lines that refuse to move. She writes fast-paced novels largely because she can’t stand things that take longer than they should.
