Re:Zombie Stories! 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
I read outbreak.It was good but just got fed up with talking zombies that can run.
I'm old fashioned, zombies dont speak or start getting stronger.

But good story though.
I've not used Lulu but I know Phillip Neale has .Ask him his advice.

Re:Zombie Stories! 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Yeah this is a bit of a sticking point for some of my friends too. We were all reared on classic Romero Zombies, the fast moving kind; they are not so infatuating for us. I wanted a good protagonist who could grow and develop. <shrug> I like ghouls and vampires too and I think I can build a believable myth to 'explain it all' through my stories.

There is less of a zombie side of things in my other books, but its still there. Found, About a Woman and Hank and Juan have very little zombie perspective, stay away from Zombieboy if you don't like thinking zombies... I think as I keep on writing the need to explain every single character's perspective will dwindle, until I am down to the main characters only, that would be good. It'd save me a lot of sub plotting and asking myself "What is this things motivation?" too.

Anyway, thanks for the read and your thoughts on it. I'll keep honing the stories until I am ready to jump into wrangling a publisher into printing my material.

Re:Zombie Stories! 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
I didn’t like the zombie prospective at first, but after a while I started to think about it and it did make for a decent story. Also I like the zombieboy story, not so hot on the ending though. Outbreak as well, thought that ending was a bit sub par compared to the rest of the book, but still a great one, found, the conclusion was sorta different from the last chapter, but then again it was coming from the one guy’s prospective and not hers. So all in all great work.

Ps. I read these a while ago but i never got around to posting any sort of review.

Yeah really looked good.It could be fake but his friends looked a bit scared. I forget the guys name, could be derren brown.He does card and mind tricks.But I thought you and behind the mask would like it.

While I'm here, if you two know any good zombie books , let me know.I'm in my zombie mood.
Read the new Stepken King book.It's a bit like zombies, but not .A pretty good read, not the best but not bad.
