Your story starts with a haunting. This is no standard haunting either. What’s being haunted? Describe the haunting’s manifestations, it’s history, how your character came to be entangled up with it and any unique complications the character brings to the situation.

No one wants to hear they need to exercise. But hey, it’s the zombie apocalypse, and if your ass is going to have any hope of survival, you’re going to have to train hard core like an Olympian. In areas like: running, strength, endurance, shooting, swords, knives, any weaponry you can get your hands on, hand to uncoordinated but infected & hungry hand combat, and more. You’d be wise to get into parkour too. Get of the fact that’s it’s French, somehow it manages to be pretty bad ass anyways.

Yeah I write poetry. I actually have an entire poetry blog. As though you didn’t know, you tricksy minx.

1. When I got some good music on and a bit of concentration power, I can type a poem quickly and easily.
2. I got hooked on writing poetry in the 6th grade and randomly feel compelled to write one many times a year ever since.
3. It’s an excellent writing warm up.
4. It’s an excellent vocabulary and articulation exercise for a writer. Flex your phrasing dexterity.
5. It’s a creative pursuit and if there’s one thing I regularly pursue it’s using creativity.
6. It’s very therapeutic, a great way to get out the more painful emotions in a safe and productive way, rage, aggression, grief, sadness, etc.
7. It often leads to coming up with great story elements and plot ideas. Which ya know as a fiction writer, that’s fairly important for me to seek to do.
8. Poems do not have to rhyme, despite the frequent assertions of the masses that imply that all poems rhyme. Free verse rules.
9. There’s this nifty sense of freedom when writing a poem. Like for a little while my cage is gone or at least invisible. Granted I get that feeling when I do any art and writing, but it’s a unique sense of freedom to each form of art and each format of writing.
10. Because I don’t suck at it.

Granted according to baseline physics rules that apparently stay the same in alternate realities in fiction like that show Sliders have been utterly ignored, possibly flouting scientifical reason and logic. Flout away I shall. Muwahahaha!! Personally, I never bought into the idea that all of those sorts of things would be baseline between realities, it seemed more logical to me that some stuff would randomly be way more off.

1. The colors are wonky. Green skies and blue grass.
2. People are driving all European style on the roads in the US. (“the wrong side of the road”)
3. A vacant stepford stare and obscene amounts of cheeriness coming from everybody.
4. All the food is in pill form.
5. A flock of miniature accountants suddenly runs by.
6. All the nice people are mean and the mean people are nice and it’s not opposite day.
7. The buildings are made of fire.
8. All the water tastes like kool-aid.
9. Pixie sticks contain actual pixies.
10. The bastards have jetpacks!! (seriously though where are our jetpacks?!)

Ya know if I had made one before now. I’ll admit it, some of these things are basically what most people want. Oh well, I want to do all of these things before I die even if I might seem more normal by doing so. Ugh, normal, not my favorite thing.

1. Visit Japan. Someday, if I wish with all my squishy little heart, I’ll get to have this dream vacation. And if I’m super lucky, I’ll get to do this more than once.

2. Get married. I’ve wanted that since I was a little girl, big surprise I know. And someday, if the world is not too evil, I’ll meet the right guy…. Thought I had there for a few years. But apparently not.

3. Do well enough with Bent Realm Studios that I not only fully earn a nice living with it, but also well enough that I can have a bunch of employees also earning a good living. Muwahahaha gimme deh monies!!!

4. Own my own home with an awesome art studio/ office in it.

5. Become mobile. As in learn to drive, get my license and have & maintain a vehicle. I had a car once, a Cadillac, but somehow I wasn’t able to snag me a reliable source of driving lessons.

6. Have an extensive home media library in it’s own massive room. I have over the years randomly acquired lots of books, movies, CD’s etc. Though I’ve randomly had to get rid of lots of stuff during my numerous moves, I still have lots. I so plan to continue acquiring these things, cuz my inner collector demands it. And like the stomach it must be obeyed. Oh and I’m wanting to expand my video game collection too. But I need more shelves and a pretty room to house these entertainment morsels in. It’ll be super cool to not have to double stack stuff too.

7. Go to a Comic-Con dressed in Cosplay. It had been mentioned that I look a bit like Dawn so maybe I’d go as her…the 1st time….

8. Go to a real concert. Yep, I’ve never been. So lame right? Hope it doesn’t take all the way until accomplishing numbers 3 & 5 to knock this one off the list.

9. Take martial arts classes. Oh hells yeah! I’ve wanted to do this since I was a teenager. And not just cuz the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are awesome, no there were and are many other awesome things inspiring this desire. Bet if I did and I excelled, I still wouldn’t make it past the 1st obstacle on Ninja Warrior, heh.

10. Make some cartoons. Ok yeah I have lots of creative goals, I want to finish & release novels, comics, music, video games, etc. But I decide to use the cartoons one here since I’ve loved cartoons longer than any of those other forms of entertainment.

There you stand in the midst of massive chaotic debris, you’ve lost something important. It’s the zombie apocalypse and the undead are staggering towards you. Tell us how the zombie apocalypse came about, and what you lost and why it’s so important that you find out. Also be sure to include the fight scene of your escape of the encroaching horde.

As soon as the zombie apocalypse begins it’s important to go seek out your crazy old guide person. Be proactive, don’t wait for your zombie battling Yoda to show up on your doorstep. You need to begin your zombie learning as quick as possible. Cuz somehow real world zombies are going to be different than fictional zombie mythos. Seriously, the zombies have their own PR guy out there, even as we speak, spreading zombie rumors just to make it easier to kill your yummy ass.
