Midway through 2008, as some of you will be aware, I completed a fictional six-month blog - entitled 'One Day at a Time' - which detailled one man's daily struggle to survive the zombie apocalypse. The reaction to that blog (posted on LiveJournal, and now shut down) was pleasingly favourable. So: I'm doing it all again.
Deadwalkers is a tale set quite a bit further into the future than most post-apocalyptic zombie fare, and one which - hopefully - throws a few new ingredients into the mix. But you'll have to read it to judge for yourselves. So please consider yourselves invited to visit, read, hopefully enjoy, and comment. A new chapter will go up weekly, and the prologue has already been posted.
Hey, it's free, so what have you got to lose?
Chuck McKenzie is an Australian speculative author with a reputation for humorous SF and - more recently - horror fiction. His output thus far includes sales of short fiction to Agog, Aurealis, Andromeda Spaceways Inflight Magazine, Borderlands, Daikaiju! Giant Monster Tales, and others. He's also produced a novel (Worlds Apart, Hybrid Publishers, 1999) and a collection (Confessions of a Pod Person, MirrorDanse Books, 2005), and have been nominated several times for both the Aurealis and Ditmar awards. Chuck's last major work was a serialised online novel, One Day at a Time: Life, the Zombie Apocalypse, and All That (LiveJournal, 2008), which he's hoping to have picked up as a print publication soon.
