Zombies Are Live!

Wait—that's not right . . .

What I meant to say is, my near-future apocalyptic zombie short story is up at Strange Horizons right now, this very minute.

So, if you're partial to militias, marines, or pus (preferably all three?): click away!

Wow. That was an....interesting way to procrastinate working on my chapter revisions.

Can I use this story in my class this semester, for my zombie section at the end of the term? It would be PERFECT.

OMG--of course you can use it! Do you have any idea how far that would go in exorcising my ambivalence toward my place in academia? I would laugh, and laugh, and laugh . . .

AWESOME.

I cannot wait to creep my students out with this story and THEN tell them that I know the author. It's going to be SO COOL.

Tears of zombie-joy, also tears of emotional suffering and angst joy. :)

Zombies scare me

Well, I'm glad you read it anyway :D

(They scare me too, which is probably why I find it so much fun to write about them.)

Excellent stuff! Really liked the hard-boiled protagonist & creepy atmosphere. Inspiring!

Thanks! I go back and forth between whether she's hard-boiled or, you know . . . a sociopath. I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Ah well, I didn't dare put it quite so strongly. You never know how emotionally attached writers get to their characters :-)

Just read it. It runs so smoothly from beginning to end! The girl with the rat is the creepiest. Vivid!
