DEAD SURVIVORS . Zom

A collection of stories from survivors of the Zombie outbreak.

By now you are or should be familiar with the setting,,, You wake up one morning and there are walking corpses snacking on your neighbors, on your front lawn. If you reacted to what your eyes were seeing before your brain was finished processing, you probably were not the main course. If you were armed, trained, resourceful, and had tendencies toward violence you likely made it to the end of the day. With a little luck, you made it through the night . . .

Let's pop this conversation over to the chat section (on the project, not the general) so as not to bog down the story ...

Also, anyone who wants to brush up or just get inspired about zombies should check out Max Brooks': Zombie Survival Guide, or World War Z. I think those are pretty standard zombies and can at least give a base template for what we'll work with.

I am not at all a fan of magic zombies. I prefer a bit of science. Obviously the characters won't know all the details but it helps make a more real zombie when it isn't just a vague walking dead person.

So is this a collab where we piece together any zombie excerpts we want? First hand survivor accounts, narratives, anything?

Housedad you said you wanted to continue with some of your stories, so I might just add a parallel plot line following my characters.

Or we could just start pumping out the zombie gems and see where it goes from there.

But if we're doing a full-scale outbreak It'd be cool to just touch base as to where you think it started, rate of spread, method of infection (or ambient infection), as well as zombie disposal (head shots? How long to decompose beyond mobility in temperate weather) I'll discuss all this at some point but I don't want to contradict you right out the gates. Obviously we can go back and make the pieces synch later.

I'm psyched for this project. Lets get the momentum! I've been planning this novel with my brother for quite a while actually. I'll try to get him on here.
