Oz apocafic ?!?

[vanillalime]

Thanks to a recent positive review by the_emu, I just finished reading "World War Z" by Max Brooks, a book about a world-wide zombie apocalypse. I really enjoyed it and found the concept fascinating (yeah, I know I'm a little late to the zombie game). I loved the format of the book, too, written as a series of transcripts of interviews with various

Oh wow, thank you! That looks like a great story, I'm definitely looking forward to reading it. (And that's pretty obscure journal--I'm amazed that you uncovered it!)

I love your list! I've read most of these, but the one in the comments is completely new to me. How did you find it?

I'll be doing some re-reading!

[vanillalime]

Thank you! I know I've been having a great time this last week reading these stories (or re-reading in some cases). I'm actually fairly inspired to try writing one of my own, except I still have so many other story ideas languishing in my head. I wish my writing ability could keep pace with my imagination!

[ozsaur]

Oh yes, please do write some apoca-fic! Any kind at all - zombies, epidemic, zombies, nuclear holocaust, zombies, EMP, zombies, worldwide economic collapse, zombies... LOL

I still have so many other story ideas languishing in my head. I wish my writing ability could keep pace with my imagination!

I know what you mean. I have so many ideas, and I can't seem to get even a fraction of them out of my head. And I am also in the same boat - my writing just isn't up to the task of writing many of the ideas that I have.
