(Thank you, Zylaa, for telling me about the NaNo threads. *is a noob XD*)
So. I kinda want to do NaNoWriMo this year. I'd attempted this oncce in the past, if you don't count Camp, and uhhh. I failed. Terribly. Reaaaally terribly. But maybe I can get past three pages this time around?
...hahahano. But I can try!
Sooo I was thinking about writing a zombie story.
MIND
BLOOOOOOOOWN.
Seriously though zombiesss. I. Want to write about them. Yesss.
So I was thinking that the MC is a high schooler. He has the girlfriend of his dreams, a spot on the soccer team, and plenty of friends.
aaand then people get a disease, die, and come back as walking corpses!
Essentially, it's aboit the MC trying to survive. Told from his perspective, yuppers.
My idea was that the disease was "cured" with a medicine, currently named derpaderp, which was the cause of the...zombification, I guess? Aside from that, bites also made people turn.
I was thinking that maybe scratches affected their condition, or contaminated food, or something. Either way, the MC turns into this mutation-ish thing that most people mistake for zombies, therefore ruling out protection from humans, but still live enough for zombies to go after, so MC has two threats hanging over his head.
I'm still trying to work it out, but I think it could maybe work if I write it well enough. Mehhh I DUNNO but that's what I'd like to do because it'd be fun! So yeah. If you have any help that you could offer me, I'd give you brownies and hugs and my eternal luff. owo
