The house battle was thrilling. Reminded me of 28 days later.
Next time you post more than 2000 words, consider breaking it up into pieces for Steemit. That way you can post more and potentially get more back. Like, this could be part I, Part II house battle and Part 3 virus. Hell, you could still do this now.
I think your idea of a collective book of stories about the zombie apocalypse is pretty cool. It also gives you as the writer to give different perspectives on each situation. It’s very World War Z. Overall, fun read! I love action stories.
Also, your intro paragraph was a proper hook.
Thank you, I am a big fan of things like 28 days later, I read this back now and really don't know how I managed to write it!
That is some really useful feedback. I don't know why I tend not to break stuff up, I just never thought about it really, I just post what I have. Sincerely, thank you!
The idea of a collective book was one I had a while ago, I think it was somewhat inspired by the movie The Zombie Diaries, which follows different groups of people, but got me thinking about a collective diary of the apocalypse.
I have been thinking about maybe looking for other people to write some of the other accounts in it, I would like to do a few myself, but the stories of people met along the way could work quite well being done by others. Eventually, if I end up with a complete story, I would like to make it into a book, with fake newspaper clippings etc, just need to get down to it and write a bit more myself!
word. check out world war z if you haven't already. it'll give you plenty of ideas to do a spin on
