5:30 AM rolled around and we were suddenly awoke by what sounded like gunfire.

 

I sat up quickly and grabbed my gun, "GUYS GET UP WE GOTTA…

it's been awhile since i've had the chance to gather my thoughts..... i've been driving getting farther and farther from my home....... its probably burnt down to ash by now...... i've driven for 9 days now........... only stopping when i need to give in to  biology...... to sleep to eat among other things..... the terrain is flat so im only running 4 cylenders i don't need much power....... i rotate the ones i use...... to keept he engine in check........ the main tank is almost bone…

Moments ago I achieved the goal I began on November 1st to write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. In fact I finished one day early. The novel I wrote tells the story of how the outbreak began from the perspective of patient zero. I hope to re-write and edit the novel into something that I just might be…

ok recently ive been doing research on the possibility of there being a zombie apocalypse. but my research also has to do with extra terrestrials. there is this show called ancient aliens on the historry channel, and they were talking about how back in the 1500s there were reports of there being "flying crosses" in the sky and these flying crosses would supposedly have lights coming from these "crosses".and if another "cross" would get hit by the lights ther would fall to the earth.so what…

 I've always had Zombie dreams. Like with me upstairs in my room looking out my window and just seeing them making their way towards me. Or like all video game status where I'm running around with a big ass gun.. anyway, ever since all this crazy stuff happened I've just been dreaming of these fuckin' zombies non-stop. It's like I'm expecting rainbows and butterflies when I go…

a girl named Aska joined our group.

the thing is. its bullshit. leaving these people. leaving a man named Jeremy in the middle of a parking lot.

we cant afford these things.

most of us dont have..civilized sympathy.

and what [doesnt] hurt is that we leave them.

in this world. on this whole fucking planet that's all there is.

and after watching..."murder'?

i dont know. there is no involuntary manslaughter or…

I was stationed on the Submarine Base in CT for shore duty.  I had a great desk job, great schedule, great change of pace.  I could go home every night to the wife and dog to relax.  Things were starting to look up for us.  

Then... people started getting sick and worried, they looked to us (NAVY BASE) for help.  They didn't know any better, they saw us as the Government.  They thought we had answers.  We didn't.  What we did have was orders.  Orders to bring ourselves and…

I'm not sure what day it is. It may be just after Thanksgiving. New York City is gone. I've holed up in a small cabin just above the tree line. It used to be a nice area. Pine trees all about. I found it by accident. It was clean and empty. I've camouflaged my vehicle and am going to stay here a while. There are a few small towns nearby. I passed on a road, a logging track really. It was chaos. Shooting, looting and those things... the undead, rambling about in small numbers. Before the news…

You gotta go when you gotta go, let me say that first and foremost. I was out on watch, daytime, low risk due to all the other watchmen as well, I really had to go take a number two, it was beans for lunch, and let me tell you.... anyways, I went into our outhouse, it was built into the wall, not very dangerous. I dropped my pants, sat down, and began my business, I read through an old plumbing manual I had found, it was my dream to one day restore the plumbing in this place to a closed…

Well,

This sucks.

Turns out my rambblings to you ungrateful swine is "wastefull of recources".  Electricity is renewable.  Who are they to judge me.

I am now supposed to just report what is going on at our "humble home".

We are currently low on ammuntion.  We are low on weapons (video games LIE), and we may die2nite.  If this is my last post then I am dead.  Not much of a loss eh?  He he.  They came out of no-where.  Their must be atleast a hundred, and more will…

I really hope it doesn't. Because I have about 30 cases of it right next to me. I know it's odd but It's kinda hard to sleep when you know there are brain eating monsters right down the street from you. I'm pretty sure I'm safe where I'm at but I can never be too sure.... I would rather not be caught off guard and get mauled while I'm sleeping. It would freakin suck waking up to that. knowing that all you wanted was to get some sleep then dying... woooo! Screw that...

I sat with the wireless at the window today scanned the frequencies much of it was white noise and intelligable babble found one channel a German guy yelling at the top of his voice having a merry rant I remember sitting there and thinking "Yeah mate broadcast meal on aisle 2" I turned him down as the Shamblers outside started to cock their heads in that "eh up dinner time" way this same routine went on for 10-15 minutes scan and re-scan then something that sounded like a question time…

Whenever I think of all that has happened,

it reminds me of that one queen song.

It was called...  Bohemian something.

"Is this the real life, is this just fantasy".

Is this real life.  Is this actually happening.  Am I actually sitting at a computer with a bottle of spoiled wine at my side and a python strapped to my side.  Did I actually witness that little girl...  Or am I just in some ward, some cell, some prison.  Whatever gets me throught the night was…

i got up and made a final sweep for supplies..... grabbing a few spare parts salvaged  from the vehicles out back.... i installed fuel gages for my weapon and my disel tank the original fuel gauge is for the vegi oil...... i sit in the morning air  and gather wood. and have a fire....... i wont be here long enough ...... at night ive heard the stirings of zombies......  but this morning its calm and clear....  the fire warms me and i brew a pot of coffee... i found an old thermos in a truck…

I've just recently created my very first blog and I thought I'd share it with my fellow zombie community. I'm passionate about zombies, horror, and writing and my blog is my attempt to accomplish my horror journalism dreams. Please give it a chance and at least check it out. It's not super amazing right now because I've literally just started it but I'm super enthusiastic about it.

If I could get emails, comments, or any type of suggestion at all about how I can make it…

How long has it been.

6 weeks?  6 months?  6 years?

You never think to keep the days when each one is a new hellish mockery.  Lowe sais it has to be about six months but Griffon says it must be atleast 13 months.  He says it takes atleast 6 months since we last harvested the apples.  I just don't know.  What does it matter?  We'll know when to plant the next batch after all the snow melts.  And then they'll be back.  The things, the monstors, our former…

Nothing good to write, just bad. I got out of NYC just in time, it seems. The military is blocking the exits from the city and the flu is breaking out everywhere. The news shows crazy, chaotic views of people being attacked by what the government and the press refuse to say are infected. As soon as I got out of the city, I stopped at a branch of my bank and cleaned it out. What good will money do during Armageddon? I stopped in a small town and bought more supplies including ammunition. I'm…

I've written 35,026 words of a novel. I'm on track to hit the 50,000 word count goal established by NANOWRIMO.

I write 1,667 words a day. That part hasn't been difficult. The words come quickly and easily. The problem is that I'm using up all my words, like my brain is only willing to formulate so many sentences a day. After my daily writing, inevitably I'm be required to speak with another living person. I try to avoid it…

I leave my little room and take down the defences.... disconnect the  rope and rebundle it  in my sac..... i bring the new starting mech. I managed to salvage an ignition key for a toyota matrix  and took its automatic dootr locks ...... imoved them into  possition......... i test out the truck ....... poundign it back and forth....... the machine holds up beautifully under full load but it hit me ....... when the engine idles the additional alternators are powerless.... so i slavage a large…

You remember how I told you there was that food aid station abandoned near my local tescos I hit it this morning getting in was easy getting out was a damn close fought thing... First of all I had to get across the car park from a distance it was littered with open abandoned cars full and  half filled trolleys patched about were various Shamblers I watched them for a few minutes remembering the patterns of their movement I could have popped them off sure but loud noises in…
