**This story is highly based on The Run series by Lynne Stahl!**
It's really...really not easy trying to live day to day in a zombie apocalypse. Being in rural Georgia might get you some perks, but you're never safe, especially from hordes.
Mac and Dennis find themselves having to navigate a world overrun with flesh devouring people infected with a highly contagious virus. It's not easy or clean, but with the right amount of hands, life gets easier, and a lot more manageable.
However, not every hand is welcoming. Take it or don't, that's up to you.

The Hollowing
The dead have never been so alive. After a deadly contagion reduced the world's population into mindless, undead monsters, the ruins of America still teem with activity, as some of the dead have regained their intelligence and created their own society; one free from the living's touch. Now, more than a decade later, survivalist extraordinaire Liam Fenix undertakes a harrowing escape from the uninhabited island that has been his prison since before the outbreak began, only to discover that he is the sole survivor of the civilization he left behind. He is not alone, however, as reincarnated bounty hunter Leah believes that Liam holds the key to reversing the pandemic that created her race. Armed with their survivalist expertise and following traces of the past, the two must traverse the wastelands together and bring back life to an otherwise dead world, even as they are pursued by a tyrant who does not want this plague to end. ------- Top tags to date: #1 in Gritty 12/21/2022 - 1/11/2023 ------- New chapters will be posted on Mondays, 4:00-6:00PM EST.

Vagabonds
(WARNING: MATURE. These stories contain many topics that some readers might find uncomfortable, including intense violence, sexual content, implications of self-harm or suicide, and some instances of SA. The latter two will have trigger warnings before the story begins. If it's too much for you, feel free to pass on to the next story!) This is an an on-going horror anthology series that is collection of stories all taking place within the same despair-ridden world: a world in which society collapsed long ago and monsters aren't just the stuff of nightmares, but a thing of reality. Each story is written by one of three authors who share creative control of the world: Eli, Liz, and Dean. The stories similarly take place in different locations across different times. The time period, setting, and author will be disclosed at the start of each story. These stories are off-shoots meant to expand the lore for a pre-existing RP between the three authors, some of which being backstories for characters within it and other stories being events that were not seen in the RP itself. Some additional stories are written/being written to clarify what would be confusing without the existing context, but certain chapters will inevitably be confusing without it, so apologies for that. This is just meant to be a place where we can order the stories chronologically and put them somewhere for fun.
